Yesterday we picked back up with our, “Only God” series at Southbrook Church. It was great to dive back in—especially after 3 weeks away form this great book. And, to make it even better, we are approaching one of the greatest chapters in all the Bible—Hebrews 11–-the “Hall of Faith.” This “Hall of Faith” moniker […]
READ MOREDon’t forget that we pick back up with our “Only God” series THIS Sunday (as in tomorrow)!
