Before we come to repentance and are busy with all this life offers, the born again experience is misunderstood by the world for it is spiritually discerned. The world around us stays the same as we are transformed by the holy spirit (1 Corinthians 2:11-14) For what man knoweth the things of a man, save…
The preacher said— “One day we’ll all be together again…” and the women in the second pew held each other like shipwreck survivors clinging to wet lumber. But I been reading the Book at 3 AM with burnt coffee breath and thunder sitting low in my chest like bad weather, and I can’t find many…
