Series: Old Time Religion

Deuteronomy 6:4-9
Thanks guys! Bill Gaither, my favorite quote from Bill Gaither is ''nobody likes gospel music except the people'' cause people still like gospel music and what a great, great, song - what a great message and what a job well done! You guys could do the Gaither's. How many of you enjoyed the ''Old Time Religion'' this 3 weeks? Hadn't been good? It's been a lot of fun.
