Failure’s Response

Posted on March 2, 2017 by Pete

I know, I know . . . we’re all just sinners saved by grace. We’re not perfect, we’re still works in progress. God’s not finished with us yet. If we say we have no sin we deceive ourselves and make … Continue reading →

The Offering that Glorifies God

Posted on March 1, 2017 by Pete

Precious

Posted on February 18, 2017 by Pete

Dad, Are You Watching?

Posted on February 13, 2017 by Pete
