    Imagine that you hear the roar of a car engine outside your door. As you look out, you see a red sports convertible, and in it is a young man with flowing hair and mirrored sunglasses. You can see that he is well tanned because he doesn’t have a shirt on — just shorts and flip flops. ...read more

    Why didn’t He intervene when I had that car accident, or when my friend died of cancer? How could He let something like that happen?" It’s kind of like this - "JESUS, I PLAYED MY OWN MUSIC. WHY DIDN’T YOU DANCE TO MY TUNE."

Well, hopefully, our reflections on REVERBERATIONS will go deeper than that tonight...not ...read more
