Sibling Rivalry
Numbers 12, the grumbling and complaining of the crowds in the people of Israel have given way to now the leadership grumbling and complaining as well.

Grumblings
Numbers 11. I had grand intentions of covering Chapter 12, but next week.

Blessed Lord, you have. Must all holy…
The Hope of the Nations
Matthew, chapter two. The day is the Sunday of epiphany. Epiphany is simply the Greek word which means to show or to appear. Epiphany is a celebration of the light of Christ coming into the world.
