The Divine Crash

So yesterday’s sermon was interesting.  I had planned it week in advance and that sermon would have been great.  But then I woke up on Friday and decided to change my sermon.  Hopefully God prompted that change and I listened.  As a result there is no manuscript but you can hear the audio here or [...]

Genesis 1:24-31
