The Molecular Church

Looking At The Plans Series

Contributed by Stewart Holloway on Nov 14, 2006

However, in order for God to be free to work, you need to be dreaming the right dream. You need to be envisioning the right plan. Not just any plan will do for God. You need a divine plan to build your home. That plan is God’s written word.

I love to look at building plans – especially of houses and churches. Whether it’s a floor plan or a full blueprint, I love it. My love for plans began when I was in fifth or sixth grade and my parents were planning to build their house. Mom and dad involved me in the plan selection process, and ...read more

Keys; we all have them, we all need them, we all appreciate them, but we all resent them at times. If you don’t have the right keys, ...read more
