Notes From the Pastor
Ravi Zacharias
Sunday, morning I shared and example from Ravi Zacharias. Ravi Zacharias has spent the past 46 years commending the Christian faith and addressing life’s great existential questions of origin, meaning, morality, and destiny with eloquence and grace. He would be a great addition to anyone’s read/podcast list. Below you will find a link, where Ravi shares […]

When I was in first grade I had a teacher name Mrs. Ennis. She has long since gone to meet Jesus, but she left behind a great mark on my heart and life. As I learned to read, Mrs. Ennis would let me walk over to her house, and pick out any book that I […]
