Planting Seeds, Bearing Fruit
Discipleship response, November 2022
Plant gardens and eat what they produce…. Multiply there, and do not decrease. Seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare. ~ Jeremiah 29
