For my final session on Friday morning at Living Waters Bible Conference in Maine, we had a question and answer session. My friend Bob Puffer moderated the session, in which we answered questions and also took questions for the floor. Today and for the next several days, I’m going to post some of the questions along with brief summaries of my…
On Wednesday night at Living Waters, I was preaching on “How to Tame Lions” from Daniel 6. I began the sermon by pointing that when his opponents tried to trap him, Daniel didn’t change anything he was doing.
