Nathan, you are thinking too small… IF you gave me a dollar every time Pastor Peter told me this, I would be rich. For the past 18 years, I have worked with Pastor Peter, driving him to meetings, as a mission’s coordinator, as a business administrator of Grace TV and now as lead pastor of […]
Go Forward … Doubting Nothing
