Longing for the “good ol’ days”?

Many of you have heard this one before. So have I. I just listened to it twice while I handed out candy in front of my house. 

If you haven’t heard it before you are in for a real treat (no trick), courtesy of the Holy Spirit and Pastor Mark who boldly underlines that powerful Word.

Jesus said,  “Don’t lose heart when you pray.”
