Growth requires effort of our will toward the Spirit

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on December 11, 2016 by David BergslandDecember 11, 2016

This is meant to help Christian leadership, parents who need to keep track of what is being fed into their children's minds, and Christian authors—by encouraging them to write powerfully edifying Christian fiction.
