Six Detours On The Path To Worshiping God

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Oct 5, 2005

We know that we are to be worshiping God as a part of our daily lives, yet many Christians go for days without much thought of Him. What are the "detours" that get us side-tracked in that way? (This message was preached during week 2 of "40 Days.")

It is an act of honoring Him for who He is and/or what He’s ...read more
