By now virtually the whole world knows that Tim Tebow and his mother will be featured in a 30-second ad appearing during the first quarter of the Super Bowl. The ad itself is sponsored by Focus on the Family and cost around $3 million. What message could be so important that supporters quickly raised the three million dollars? And why has the ad sp...

Notes taken from Quiet Hints to Growing Preachers by Charles E.

Posted by Ray Pritchard on Tuesday, February 2

Today I gave my first three lectures on the book of Galatians to 350 very attentive students at Word of Life Bible Institute in Pottersville, New York.
