This past Monday, ...read more

    In our lives we have many commitments, but our first and most immediate commitment is to the First and the Last.

    First and Last Revelation 1:4-8 Jesus said the last will be first and the first, last. This has made for a great rush for the end of the line. Everyone wants to be first, therefore, they claim the last position ... right? Wishful thinking. People still don’t want to wait and don’t like to wait. ...read more
