    Hard or Simple? Matt. 22:15-22 A university research wished to study the differences in perception that are related to ones vocation. So, they devised a simple test in order to detect how a person’s professional vocation influenced their answer to a simple question. The first to be tested ...read more

    A KINGDOM FOCUS OR ‘POLITICS AS USUAL’? Matthew 22:15-22 •This is the question every believer must ask during election time.
