Does Jesus the Shepherd Satisfy Your Needs?
Pastor Terry Wilcox

Psalm 23:1-6, I Peter 1:2-3


“Pennsylvania Dutch” help wanted ad: $100 per month and “everything found”??

Deuteronomy 2:7
Nehemiah 9:19-21

We have been told that money is .
We have been told that  is power.
We have been told that  is power.

But when I have stood next to someone in a hospital bed facing death, never has anyone wanted to discuss any of those “powers.”

Since He is mine and I am His,

What can I want beside?
