    How do we deal with anger, sin and disagreement in our communities? Does Matt 18:15-17 inspire us to deep dastedely discipline or do we need to read it in the context of the rest of Matthew 18?

    "Finding God's Strength" Series

    Contributed by David Henderson on Sep 15, 2014
     | 8,087 views

His ministry had its share of highs and lows but this was definitely one of his finer moments. In the background, Jesus had just gone through ...read more
