As we have begun to read about passion week, I have been reflecting on a few things that I have never thought much of before. So today, I am sharing with you 3 truths to remember on Palm Sunday. I began a little reading a little before the typical Palm Sunday story begins, and Jesus [...]
I have been writing the last couple weeks on the armor of God. And today, we get to the what has probably grown to be my favorite. That is the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. I don’t want any of us to miss the importance of this, because this is [...]
