Part 14 - Matthew 10:18-19 - Grasshopper, Expect The Unexpected! Series

He is a big man with muscles like an Olympic weight lifter, a voice that booms and a laugh that is full and infectious. PATRICK PATTERSON loves the Lord and if ...read more

An Act Of Obedience Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 2, 2021

Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of heaven." I cannot imagine any child who loves Jesus, and who desires to be baptized in obedience to Him, being to young.

THE TIMING OF ...read more
