    The text and story you are all familiar with. Yet, as with all of God’s Word, there is yet another lesson we can learn.

    Today, more than ever before, the enemy of our souls is targeting our children. If we, as parents aren't careful to raise our children in the light of God's Love and Truth, satan will be happy to raise them in the shadows of immorality and apostasy.

    I found myself torn between two topics I felt led to preach on this week, but I believe the Lord used elder Jermaine’s last sermon to help me decide. I don’t know what part of that message resonated with you; but for me, the most powerful point that he brought out was this: Speaking of the great ...read more
