The preacher emphasizes th...

This sermon explores the biblical response to anger and irritation by emphasizing the foundational importance of personal dedication to God.

We need some Noahs today! In a world filled with wickedness, Noah was a preacher of righteousness who witnessed, worked, waited, and warned others of the judgment to come.
