    The things in this world, even the things that we pray earnestly for, often end up distracting us from the Giver of the Gift.

    Dependence Day This morning we look at dependence on God, and identifying the difference between loving gifts, and loving and worshiping the Giver of All Good Gifts.

Experience, qualifications, references, character traits … The reason I asked is because followers of Jesus ...read more
