Living Out Our Faith; May 20, 2022
Acts 24:16 “So I strive always to keep my conscience clear before God and man.” Luke’s very faithful record of what went on in this courtroom sounds like it could have happened yesterday. People haven’t changed! That’s why the Bible … Continue reading

The Miracle of Grace; November 17, 2020
