It’s been a while, so today’s Click On These post will be a tad longer. This is a list of articles written by people who are far better experts than us! I hope you find them thought-provoking.
When My Heart Is Overwhelmed – Britt Merrick
I was just shown this sermon. Britt Merrick, son of famous surfboard shaper Al Merrick, founding pastor of Reality Carpinteria and author of the book Big God, gave this message a while back.
