    In the past 50 odd years we have seen moral compromise in the body of Christ and our nation. Put another way, when did the church fall asleep? What caused the church to fall asleep? Are we to remain sleeping or wake up the sleeping giant? I don't have ...

In the reading we heard from the Book of Judges a few minutes ago, we heard an example of how God takes ...read more
