Submitting the AUTHORITY of God (3 of 5)
Series: 5 Marks of a Disciple

Seemingly giving in, the farmer opened his gate to allow the surveyor into his pasture. But as the surveyor was setting up his equipment, the farmer went to the opposite end of the field and released his biggest, most vicious bull. Of course, w/in minutes, the bull had corner ...
