#1 Peals of Thunder – OT Survey

11 July 2021 By David Trounce Leave a Comment

#1 Peals of Thunder - A Survey of Christ in the Old Testament

#12 Jesus and the Environment

11 April 2021 By David Trounce Leave a Comment

#12 Jesus and the Environment - Jesus Through all of Life

There is the music of Bach - sermo humilis

June 21st is world music day and that gives me the excuse I needed to say something about Bach. In April 2009, British atheist, A.N.
