    Preached at a rescue mission. When we think that not even God can do what He has promised, He will silence us so that we can listen. When we experience God’s power, we will be empowered to give our testimony and to stand for what we know is right.

A hundred years ago, who would have thought it would be possible to send pictures through space? Who would have imagined that somebody standing in front ...read more
