Add it to the Mix!
Hebrews 4:2 – For indeed the gospel was preached to us as well as to them; but the word which they heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard it.

I get the sentiment behind it. Especially as we witness, letting people know that we too had toContinue reading “Just a Sinner Saved by Grace?”
Mustard Seed Faith?
What did Jesus mean about mustard seed faith? While I cannot say with certainty what He meant, I can say with certainty, what He didn’t mean. Traditionally, we have been taught that mustard see faith was having just “a little faith, the size of a mustard seed” to move a great big mountain. Well, IContinue reading “Mustard Seed Faith?”
