A Good Problem To Have

Posted on February 9, 2016 by Pete

Above All . . . Enter My Rest

Posted on February 4, 2015 by Pete

The instructions were complete. All that Moses needed to know, he knew. Not as simple as following Ikea instructions, but the building plans for the tabernacle were clear. The place where God would meet with Moses . . . the … Continue reading →

He Shall Bear

Posted on February 3, 2015 by Pete
