In this sermon Pastor Dave Leandre preaches through Judges chapter 7 – the story of Gideon’s miraculous victory over the Midianites.

Join Pastor Leandre as he looks into the lives […]
As we look into the life of Jacob in the book of Genesis, we find that the meaning of his name is the overall theme of his life: “deceiver.” Throughout his youth, his relationship with his family, and his laboring for a wife, Jacob is always trying to do things on his own, apart from […]
