Spoken Word:You Just Never Knew

I can remember being unsaved and just “knowing” that I had my whole life ahead of me.  This should be expected of the spiritually blind.  Sadly, even after regeneration many of us take for granted that tomorrow is promised to us.  We should not be so presumptuous in our planning James 4:13-17.  The following video highlights how living... [Read more...]
