    Before getting into the sermon series, let me ask this question. Do you believe God's still working in your life? if yes, Were you able to understand his work?

    According to 2 Corinthians 4:4, spiritual blindness and misunderstanding are still prevalent in the lives of many believers. This is a big hurdle in experiencing God and his blessings in one's life. Clearly, this blindness and misunderstanding is the work of the Father of Lies, Satan. And ...read more
