     | 8,954 views

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,639 views

    God does judge nations, cities, churches, families. If we refuse to pursue His glory, there is nothing left for God but to hold us accountable.

     | 13,704 views

    Can God speak through an imperfect individual? We are studying the life and "ministry" of Balaam to discover the pertinence of his life to our own lives.

    based on 1 rating
     | 10,539 views

    Each Christian will face battles throughout the life they are called to live.

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,659 views

    “He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief; and as one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not.” [1] During these festive days of celebrating the birth of the Son of God, Christ is the unrecognized guest at multiplied tables ...read more
