Welcome to the Daily Blade. The Word of God is described as the sword of the spirit, the primary

0:07.2

spiritual weapon in the Christian's armor against the forces of evil. Your hosts are Joby Martin

and Kyle Thompson, and they stand ready to equip men for the fight. Let's sharpen up.

All right, welcome back. Day two in this Christmas edition of the Daily

0:23.4

Blade. These are my tips and tricks from the scripture on how to win this year at Christmas.

0:29.5

Again, I said it yesterday. Winning at Christmas is not about how many alights you have up or who gets

1:46.4

or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a
