Be Strong and Pray

A few years back there was a popular phrase coined, “Get Over It”! People would get upset over the most non – essential things. Why do we allow the little things of life to get us so upset?

Paul in Romans and GalatiansContinue reading “Could You Not Watch with Me One Hour?”

The Battle is The Lord’s

People were afraid of this Philistine Goliath was a giant and very intimidating. He was the guy when you saw him would turn the other way or walk across the street to avoid him.
