Lost Sheep And Lost Coin

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 21, 2021

Acts Of The Apostles (11 Of 39)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 14, 2022

Chapters 6 and 7, told us how God used the great deacon, Stephen, and how he gave his life for the gospel.

But when a man like Stephen dies, it leaves a vacuum for some time. Look at verse ...read more
