Love that will not let me go

Preacher:
Passage: Isaiah 43:16-21
Service Type:

Today as we move closer to the week of the passion, we will be talking about how meaningful God’s love toward us is. From our old testament reading today want to look at three things which ought to encourage us in his love. It is always my prayer that you are blessed and encouraged.
