Broken Chains

Have you ever been hungry? I mean really hungry. Did you notice how hard it is to do the right thing whenever you’re hungry? In chapter 4 of Matthew, we see Jesus being tempted by Satan after fasting for forty days and forty nights. The Scriptures point out the obvious in saying that, by the […]
