How Do I Handle My Anger? Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Sep 22, 2021

A Crown Jewel Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 26, 2022

When searching for a lost coin (lost person) the Lord gets to work! He lights a lamp and sweeps the house, like using a fine-tooth comb. The lost coin is like a jewel in a wedding headdress. We are to Jesus as a crown jewel!

Contributed by Pastor Sam Georgis on Jan 14, 2023
