The Feast Of Weeks.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 4, 2025

Solidify Your Spiritual Gains Series

God has done some things in our own hearts. We need to solidify those things before we move to the next thing.

One of the things I like about GraceWay is that there's real openness to single people. I don't know, we maybe take that for granted here.
