Likewise we are prone to miss some signs of poor spiritual health if we don’t check up on it regularly. In ...read more

    Its high time Christians stop sounding retreat and start shouting “charge”! Instead of the devil taking it to us, we should be taking it the devil – that’s the heart of spiritual warfare!
