David said after coming clean before God after he had done something wrong, “The sacrifice you desire is a broken spirit. You will not reject a broken and repentant…
September 1st – 2024 – Calculated
Pastor Scott speaking (Colossians 1:9-10) A few leaves are already starting to turn color. As fall approaches, let’s be very calculated in what we put into our schedules. We don’t want them empty.
