Mark 12

I found an old friend on the internet today. Joel Eason was the last Youth Pastor I worked under before I became a Youth Pastor myself. He is now the Pastor at Bridgeway church in FL. I downloaded his last sermon and it was such a joy to hear his voice again! I'm so glad that he has started a successful church and will add him to my prayer list.
