The Supernatural Power of Communion – Part 2
I am convinced of this one thing ... people are hungry for the things of God. There is a cry of desperation sweeping across the land from those longing for more of God's presence. And, I confident that you are one of those individuals. In this short blog series, The Supernatural Power of Communion, I am thrilled to share what might be for many a new way of connecting with our Father.
