Genesis 23:1-10
I want to speak today on the subject "Hints For Wives and Helps For Husbands."

My friend Satan is going to attack the home because the home is the heart of the church. And the home is the heart of the nation and so goes the nation as will the family goes as the home. And our church will never rise above the strength, the faith, and the inspiration o ...
