Absolute Surrender

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Apr 17, 2012

Worship 6 Series

Contributed by Clyde White on Sep 14, 2005

Our unique relationship within the Body of Christ, is SO different that it is nearly impossible, through natural logic, to comprehend. We are “fellow” workers WITH God in His field and on His building, and field.
