In this episode I share from John 7:20-24 We can’t JUDGE correctly without knowing the WHOLE story! Yesterday I had a funny thing happen to me with throwing a biodegradable tissue into the forest.

BOTH talking. BOTH listening. David shares how he WAITS with EXPECTANCY to HEAR from God...

In this episode I share from Luke 5:1-11 When Jesus tells Simon to go into the DEEP waters and catch the fish…Peter's response was, "If you say so, I'll go." It's NOT just about his response in going. It was his response and saying, "If you say so, I will go."
