  1. Through all of our many hours of prayerful study and subsequent toil, and mostly through the words we speak and write, without Christ we are powerless to enact any lasting positive change in people’s lives. “For the word of God is quick and powerful…” We find that the only thing truly powerful enough to save and to change lives is the word of God. I pray you will continue to expound the truths of His mighty word, remembering always that it is His words and not our own which possess such a dynamic as to impact eternal change. Keep up the great work.
