Transitions. Whether we know they are coming or they catch us unaware, we must possess the right character traits to handle them successfully.
In the second sermon of his series “Transitions,” Dr. David Rhoades examines how God used the persecution of the early church to spread the gospel to new lands in “Responsive: Flexibility in Unexpected Times.”
Dr. David H. Rhoades is a believer in Jesus Christ who is passionate about disciple-making. A gifted author and speaker, he is the Senior Pastor at Broadview Church in Lubbock, Texas. He is producing a growing number of biblically-based resources that can help Christians lead the people in their circles of influence to become fully devoted followers of Christ.
