This Week on Soul Talks The new year is typically a time to “leave the old behind” and “look forward to the new.” But it’s easy to become so future-oriented that you miss Jesus’ presence with you here and now! That’s why it’s powerful to reflect and rejoice in Christ before you turn the page…

462 – Immersed in Jesus’ Presence in Handel’s Messiah

This Week on Soul Talks Many of us only skim the surface when it comes to spiritual growth because we don’t know how to relate to Jesus personally.
