    The Other Cup Series

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jun 28, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,496 views

    The challange of Miriam and Aaron to the authority of Moses. Sibling rivalry or something deeper? How do we see our shame and disgrace as a spiritual dis-ease or an opportunity to be washed clean through the grace of God?

    There’s some thing about people who end up famous that we somehow know or perhaps know or went to school with, people who do something amazing and all of a sudden everyone knows about them.
