Psalm 40:1-3
Well I am starting a new series today and we're calling it Pit Falls: From the Depths to Deliverance. Now I heard about a couple, they weren't getting along very well and they had not been getting along very well for years and it was really getting bad.

Beth Moore said in her book that as she began to teach on this topic of being in a pit, she would have these ladies that would come you know to her conferences and her bible studies and she said "These aren't people that just feel like they had to come because it was Easter.
