    Is Jesus Your Teacher? Series

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Feb 9, 2004
    based on 36 ratings
     | 6,508 views

    If a fully trained student is like his teacher, we need to seriously consider who we allow to hold that position in our life and in our children’s lives.

Chapter 5 tells us how he touches a leper and later announces to a man that his sins are forgiven, then he demonstrates his authority to forgive by healing the man. He doesn’t fast like he’s ...read more

     | 16,400 views

    As we examine this prayer of benediction we discover several truths about God.

Many churches end their worship services with a benediction, or a blessing. The Bible contains several ...read more
