Just A Little Give And Take

Contributed by Eloy Gonzalez on Feb 29, 2004

First Sunday in Lent: Temptation is often the enticement to compromise, to engage in just a bit of ’give and take.’ Jesus would have none of it when satan tempted Him. Nothing would deter Jesus from the Cross.

Whey even a good football game starts out as a battle of give and take. One team will fight and ...read more
