Faith Or Presumption? Series

Contributed by Pat Cook on Sep 17, 2005

19th in series on Joshua. This deals with Caleb and his faith. The question is asked, though: what is faith, and what is presumption? Sometimes what we call trust is really superstition.

Meet Me At The River

Contributed by Jim Drake on Oct 23, 2007

I preached this sermon the Sunday prior to our annual fall revival meetings. The steps Ezra took the people through in this passage were foundational to the revival they experienced in Nehemiah 8 and 9.
