Jesus has a betrayer with inside information. - John 18:2. b. Jesus is in an enclosed area. - John 18:1. - It’s an olive grove and they went “into it,” so ...read more

     | 8,179 views

    I must earnestly believe that God exists, that I matter to Him, and that He has the power to help me recover.

So we've each been hurt, we've each hurt others, and we've each hurt ourselves. And we find ourselves constantly dealing ...read more
