    In a time of famine, Elimelech and his family run from God to the land of God’s enemies, and pay a steep price as they do what seems right in God’s eyes. How will we respond in the time of our own “famines?”

     | 4,248 views

    Too many radical people are rising up and attacking Christians! This is in part due to radical ideals sewn in the 1970s. Communism also plays a role. If we are not radical for Jesus then other radicals will take over.

    Empathic Compassion: Experiencing Your Pain In My Heart

    Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Feb 18, 2021
     | 2,172 views
