One friend answered, "I would want people to say, ‘He was a great humanitarian who cared about his community.'"

A second replied, "I would want people to say, ‘He was a great husband and father, an example for many to follow.'"

Do you remember when the Israelites escaped from Egypt, from Pharaoh, and from slavery?

Justified By Faith

If you haven't already heard, we're in a series of messages looking at our spiritual roots—where we all came from on our spiritual journeys.

Why are we doing this? Because sometimes it helps to understand where we've come from so we can move forward. We must understand our heritage of faith and spiritual upbringing so we can either (1) build on its good foundation or, (2) if it wasn't lined up with God's Word, realign our thinking.
