The Bible

We went to New Wine, a great big Christian conference/holiday a couple of weeks ago. One of the things about that type of event is that you have the opportunity to get some in depth Bible teaching. Every morning we’d take the kids to their groups and head along to the Big Top for worship […]

It’s Just so Rich
