    Introduction: Let me start it with a humor, Why did the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit start a band? Because they had perfect harmony! Why did the Trinity go to the baseball game? Because they heard there would be a lot of "Son" shine! Let us Pray: Is God the Father the only “one ...read more

Some don’t believe Genesis really happened believing that the book is a series of stories that were compiled to try and help us understand what happened in the ...read more
