WORD17, Week 2
It’s WORD17, Week 2. Last week we grabbed Ephesians 3:20 as our first memory verse of 2017. How about that?! Remember, we’re going lighter on the number of verses attempted this year, but we’re going deeper with each of them. There’s a great chance we’ll know the TWELVE well – very well – by the…

Do You Have One of These Lists?
Do you have one of these lists? We’re heading into December. How crazy is that? Time is flying. Does anyone know where it’s flying to? This morning as I stood on the back patio, something clicked.
