    Training For Reigning

    Contributed by Doug Morrell on Dec 5, 2005
    based on 17 ratings
     | 6,401 views

Anyone can be a Christian when things go well, but how do you do when a little pressure, a little pain, a little discomfort, criticism or gossip, a sick child, loss of income, are applied? When your fruit is squeezed, what kind of juice comes forth? We ...read more

    Paul was not intimidated with the intellect or the prominence of the Greek people. Paul knew what the Greek people thought of him, and it didn’t slow him down for a minute. Paul spoke with confidence in what he believed and lived by.

    SPEAK CLEARLY Recently, my wife and I purchased a new cordless phone. We had trouble with hearing on the old one we had. So we bought a new one that was supposed to be state of the art.
