Affirmative Attitude
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - April 15, 2018

The affirmative attitude approaches the Word of God as true because it is the Word of God. The question to ask to pursue a rational faith is not: is it true? The question to ask is: how is it true? | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PA
