“The Bible is a record of sin, deceit, immorality of every kind, disobedience, hypocrisy and God’s amazing grace and love. The heroes we admire were people just like us.

His love drew them into intimate relationship with Him, empowered them to do great things, and taught them to enjoy the life that He has provided.”
