As I’ve been preparing for this weeks sermon I’ve been thinking a lot about the things other people try to place on us that work for them but might not work for you. The passage I’m preaching from is in 1 Samuel and it’s about David fighting Goliath (a giant). At one point, Saul try’s [...]
I’ve been studying for my sermon this weekend and researching into Nebuchadnezzar – you may remember hearing that name before in Sunday School when you were little.
