It’s the sigh of one ...read more

    Trust Above Your Circumstances

    Introduction: I saw an article recently entitled, “God’s Friday.” That makes far more sense to me than “Good Friday.” There is nothing good about what happened to Jesus in and around Jerusalem about 2000 years ago. 1. Jesus’ Circumstances • Satan and his ...read more

And to help us along the road we’re going to have assistance from two old pros who we’re going to meet shortly. Hebrews… The ...read more
