Advent Devotional 2020

THE PROCLAMATION There were sheepherders camping in the neighborhood. They had set night watches over their sheep. Suddenly, God’s angel stood among them and God’s glory blazed around them. They were terrified. The angel said, “Don’t be afraid. I’m here to announce a great and joyful event that is meant for everybody, worldwide: A Savior […]

And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation”  Mark 16:15 Have you heard this order?
