When each of us finds our place in the heart of God, we find that we are cherished so deeply, anything that would seek to diminish us (e.g., racism) is...

June 28, 2020 04:00 - 17 minutes - 12 MBSpeaker: Bobae Lee Scripture: Matthew 19:14 Series: Stand Alone What is it about children that we must have that will give us the kingdom of God?
