Folks, knowing key Scripture passages is essential in your Spiritual growth. There are around 150 key verses that every follower of Jesus Christ should be familiar with. I’ll be sharing five a week with you. Remember…
“All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work.”
2 Timothy 3:16-17
Sometimes our burdens seem more than we can bear, and we wonder how we can go on.
