Out Of The Ordinary Series

Contributed by Perry Greene on Jul 1, 2019

The Weight Of A Few Words - At Thy Word

Contributed by Loyd C. Taylor on Aug 21, 2023

In this sermon we look at the weight of a few words, or how just a few words spoken by Christ had a major impact on the lives of those who listened and obeyed.
