  • What Kind of Sacrifice?

    We all make choices such as - what kind of sacrifices are you making?  And why? The Apostle Paul is a great example of one who gave up comfort and security to serve Jesus Christ, his Lord. For this, he suffered much even until almost death.  Still, he was thankful and praised God for many blessings!  How could he do this?  Tune in as Barbara shares
