    Retelling the Story Series

    by Russ Ramsey

    "A page in history was about to turn. Though Israel's world was in the throes of upheaval, it was only a matter of time before the sun of righteousness would rise.

He was sending his Messiah—Immanuel, God with us." For ...

While preachers might not dispense with Christ altogether, other things subtly take center stage and become more important than Christ himself. ...
