Alex Presley joins Ron to talk about finding his identity.

Today I got word that a friend’s wife passed away from surgery complications. It was so sudden and so unexpected for this young family. Words can’t express the devastation and grief.

Our confidence is built on the imperishable Word that “remains forever” (1 Peter 1:25).
