No Gumby God

By |Categories: Articles, Exodus, Series: I AM|Tags: , |6 Comments

A Forgiving God

There was no money for a pastor’s salary, no money for much-needed repairs, no money to even pay the mortgage. One Sunday night, Pastor Jim Cymbala began to preach. Feeling called to minister to the people of Brooklyn, but not knowing what to do in a seemingly hopeless situation, he choked up and tears filled his [...]
