The Psalm Of The Two Ways

Contributed by Howard Mcglamery on Jan 30, 2003

Two Way Communication

Contributed by Andy Almendarez on Mar 22, 2004

One of the greatest tragedies of the Christian life is that we fail to ever enter into a relationship with God that is born of the Holy Spirit. We are left with a religion, not a relationship.
