A Reflection on “True Heart Transformation” by Paul Washer

Last night, my youth group listened to a sermon by Paul Washer on Matthew 7:13-29 entitled “True Heart Transformation.” In his sermon, he argued that a person is not saved simply because they prayed a prayer asking God into their lives at some point in their life, but they are saved through faith alone, which … Continue reading

The Story of the Bible – Larry Stone
