In episode one of the 10 week Rooted series we consume Psalm 1 and I get back to the basics, giving practical tools to reclaim stability in your faith.
What’s the deal with the blood of Jesus
As Paul concludes years of missional work in Asia minor, he sums up what its all been about and gives a few thoughts on life in Christ and the power of the blood of Jesus.
