Many of us are trying to clear out the path in our own lives.

Dr. Tony Evans says life becomes very different when we finally let Christ take the lead.

Jesus Christ is behind us saying, if you'll only let me leave, I've been this way before.

This is the alternative broadcast featuring the timeless biblical teachings from the archives of Dr. Tony Evans.
