    GROWING Nehemiah 10:28-32 I heard about this man who bought a parrot. It was a beautiful parrot but he had a really bad mouth. He could swear for five minutes straight without repeating himself. The man was embarrassed because the bird was driving him crazy in front of people. He tried to appeal ...read more

    The Matrix

     | 4,080 views

    My question for you today is… are you dis-satisfied with YOUR current level of spirituality, are YOU ready to move forward and have a deeper spirituality, a closer relationship to God?

    The Matrix Two weeks ago we discussed how these Israelites had praised God and that praise led to a bigger awareness of God and His Holiness, purity and worthiness That led to a greater awareness of their own sinfulness and unworthiness That led them to confess their sins And that led them to ...read more
