How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord is laid for your faith in his excellent word.

Welcome to Through the Bible, I'm Steve Sweats, and I'm so glad that you've hopped aboard the Bible

I know that you're going to love this study.

Now before we begin, will you join me and thousands of other World Prayer Team members

as we intercede for our fellow listeners around the world.

suffered with different kinds of problems in my life and had no peace at all.

I searched many places for peace, but all my efforts were in vain.

One day I came to know about Jesus Christ through a listener of yours.
