Job Leon

 I would like to challenge you to listen to this message while driving to and from school, work or errands. It may be a reminder for some and for others it may be their salvation. The truth according to the Word of God is something that should be precious to each one of us and yet we need a wake up call from time to time. Won't you take a moment to listen and jot down your thought here on this blog?  http://cccornerstone.com/audio-sermons Enjoy
