Tame Your Temper By Billy Graham   •   March 18, 2017 Doest thou well to be angry? —Jonah 4:4 You have a temper! There is nothing unique about that.

But He does say that if you are to be happy, it must be brought under control and rechanneled to proper use. God cannot use a man without a temper as well…

Sight for the Blind

Sight for the Blind By Billy Graham   •   March 17, 2017 . . . one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see. —John 9:25 I try to explain to you the joy of following Christ: the thrill, the excitement, the exhilaration—knowing where I’ve come from, why I’m here, where I’m going! There’s a reason for existence. There’s a reason for getting up every morning of the year. I try to tell you what I’ve found in…
