There are three places in your Bible where you read that somebody refused to be comforted.  We are going to study these people and their circumstances in which they refused to be comforted.  We won’t go too deeply into the doctrinal material in these passages, so we can glean the...

When I pray for young Christians, I often ask the Lord to lengthen your root and strengthen your foundation in the Lord.  This involves being: Rooted and grounded in love – Eph 3:17 – see Eph 3:19, also.  We love him because he first loved us.  In our ministry, we...
