Fighting Your Demons | The Gospel of Mark

Fighting Your Demons | The Gospel of Mark

Life can be hard, confusing, and unfair. Don't give up! During this message series we will be walking with Jesus from Galilee to Jerusalem. He was misunderstood, hated, loved, deserted, and hung out with a ragged band of misfits. You will discover amazing life principles for your life! You will be encouraged and inspired! This is a great series for someone who wants to develop a stronger relationship with God. Invite someone and expect a miracle!
