Not Today, Satan

Integrity in Relationships

What are you going to do with Jesus?

November 21, 2019 21:41 - 15 minutes - 17.1 MB

This sermon isn't gift-wrapped and tied up with a pretty bow. It's a crystal clear, bare-bones telling of the gospel message of salvation. "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."
