God: God Reigns Over Me (2 of 4)
Series: Foundation
James Merritt
Psalm 103:19; Romans 11:33-36
Introduction
1. Foundations - how important are they? A building has to have a foundation or it cannot stand. Marriage is built on the foundation of trust. America is built on the foundation of the constitution.

6. As I think about this God, it is amazing to me to say this, but you can really boil my life down to that one, three lettered, word - God. I am blown away that one, three lettered, word has been such a dominant part of my life. God defines me per ...
