Christ followers, under the power of the Holy Spirit, will tell everyone about Him. (Acts 1:8)
I am a very visual person. I learn by seeing and doing more than reading and listening. It is just the way God made me. But when I read or listen, I have to visualize something that I’m reading that will allow me to fully understand. That’s one reason I love the parables Jesus taught.... Continue Reading →
