    Builders Or Wreckers? Series

    Contributed by Matthew Street on Oct 13, 2006

     | 6,216 views

    Are we like Paul and Barnabas builders in God’s Kingdom or are we more concerned about doing things in the way they have always been done with the result that we like the Jews miss the new things that God is doing and become wreckers rather than builders

It takes no time to knock out those old windows or that old kitchen but it takes much longer to replace them. Gerald ...read more
