Fear. Do you know anyone who has never had any fear? What are your fears? How do you deal with fear? Abraham Lee walks us through the story of Jacob found in Genesis 32. We can learn from Jacob, how God wants us to deal with the fears in our lives.
We were privileged today to have our ruling elder Abraham Lee preach God’s Word to us.
