    Read excerpt

    Watch the Devotion Based on Romans 9 :19; Jonah 4:11 The Merciful God I don’t know about you but every time I read the story of Jonah in the Bible, I am amazed.

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Watch the Devotion Based on Matthew 16:13-20 Who is Jesus? Who is Jesus? That was the topic of discussion I had with a young US Army Soldier. He had studied the world religions — Islam, Christianity, Hinduism — and concluded that Jesus was a good teacher, a moral example, but not Savior. “Who do people say I am?” Jesus asked his disciples.
