You have no idea of the impact you can have in this world. Every person has a God-given gift, calling, and a role to play in growing the Kingdom of Heaven. You (yes, you!) have been given a unique skill and talent from God! You possess passions deep down in your soul that were planted by the Creator for […]
Have you ever experienced God’s silence? I’m guessing you have, unless your prayers have never gone deeper than those of a college freshman. “Dear, God, I know I haven’t studied at all and I stayed up all night playing Xbox Live, but I would really appreciate an ‘A’ on this quiz! If I pass this […]
