Power To Succeed Series

Contributed by Barry L. Davis on May 2, 2013

While we call it the “Acts of the Apostles” it would be more accurate to call it the “Acts of the Holy Spirit” as it was the Holy Spirit moving through, in, ...read more

Disillusioned Series

Contributed by Tim Hinrichs on Sep 4, 2012

It's easy to be disillusioned about God when he doesn't do what we expect but in reality we are disillusioned about ourselves and don't really know God.
