Love In Action - Alex Brujan (Romans 12)

When God Says No - Caleb Pierce (Acts 16)
How do you respond when God says no? The doors God closes are just as important as the ones He opens. In Acts 16, we see that the Spirit of God didn’t just guide Paul by permission—He also guided him by prohibition. Sometimes the clearest direction from God comes not through opportunity, but...
