Bible In 90 Days: Deuteronomy

I enjoyed reading through Deuteronomy this week.  I kept expecting Moses to die in Leviticus because that is when God started talking about it.  So, it was fun to read all of the things he needed to tell Israel before he died.  All the things God felt were the most important for them to [...]

Book Review: Then Sings My Soul Book 3 by Robert J. Morgan
