So you’ve prayed… and prayed… and prayed… and prayed! But, you haven’t seen any change. The job is still bad. Your child is still in that terrible place. Your spouse hasn’t come around. You’re still confused as to which...

We live in the day of many voices. It seems everyone uses their voices for their passion. And some of these messages are labeled as “Christian.” So, believers often listen without comparing their message with Scripture. They don’t question the...
