THE TRANSFORMING POWER OF GOSPEL
The Transforming Power Of Gospel
Adrian Rogers
And now take your bibles and turn to the book of Joshua would you please. We're on a journey with Joshua and it's been thrilling already we've studied one whole chapter and now we come to chapter two as we're preaching through the book of Joshua.

Somebody has well said that nature forms us, sin deforms us, prisons try to reform us, education informs us, but only Christ can transform us and we need to be transf ...
