The pandemic seems to go on forever. Instead of getting better, Covid is getting worse. Many are becoming discouraged and depressed because of lockdowns and other guidelines that give us limited mobility.

Note: I developed a simple set of homemade PowerPoint slides that I used in presenting this sermon. They're not fancy or professional quality, and for this sermon there were only as small number of slides (most of which are maps), but if you're interested in having the PowerPoint file I ...read more

Moses - The Reluctant Hero Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jul 27, 2005

Or are you just kind of going along, doing your job, minding your own business and when God calls you might reluctantly go along if He twists your arm enough? You might think that a ...read more
