The Armor of God
Have you ever really thought through the meaning of the Armor of God? The types of armor mentioned in this passage is something we do not see or think about today.

The Sinner’s Prayer

Where Else Would We Go?
Has anyone ever asked you what one verse in the Bible speaks to you the loudest? If you could say in one verse what your faith is built on, what verse would that be? I have heard people refer to it as their life verse. Mine is John 6:68 where Peter exclaimed, “Lord, to whom… Continue reading Where Else Would We Go?
