Our Lord And Our Land Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 22, 2021

Paul was proud to be a Roman citizen. It was not because the empire was perfect, but because his citizenship gave him rights that were vital to his personal dignity, and to his service for God.

He was about to be beaten when he calmly asked the Roman Centurion in charge if it was lawful to scourge a man ...read more

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 21, 2021

The father and son (Tug McGraw and Tim McGraw—- withheld till the end like Paul Harvey’s style) that I speak of this morning are both famous. Though they were separated for many years, it is more than obvious that God’s “purpose” was at work in bringing them together.
