October Newsletter

Let’s pick up where we left off yesterday: Make no mistake, God disapproves of sin, and He disapproves of what sin does in our lives. He never disapproves of us personally, but He won’t sit by and let sin consume us either. As I meditated on Romans 8:1-2 and the truth that God loves people…
