Building On The Rock. Abridged.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 23, 2025

To build our lives on anything less than a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ is the very height of madness.

Others come suddenly—without courtesy, without explanation, without asking whether this is a ...read more
