Romans 5:13

Toby — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 17:54:16 +0000

No Romans lesson this week!

Toby — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 12:23:26 +0000

Hey everyone! I apologize for the late notice, but there won’t be a Romans lesson this week. Today, I’m taking my wife up to Raleigh to take her state board exam for cosmetology. It’s about a 3 hour drive each way. I’m thinking that with gas prices the way they are, they’re eventually going to have to do something different…making people drive 180 miles with gas prices now topping $4/gallon just seems somewhat unreasonable. I’m entitled to my opinion, even if – in cases like these – it doesn’t mean much (ha!). Be sure to have a listen to the Q & A lesson I put up on Saturday! As always, email me if you have questions

Q and A: July 2008, Part One

No apologetics lesson today

Toby — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 16:04:30 +0000

Hey everyone,

As you might have heard in Monday’s Romans lesson, I’ve been a little sick in my throat this week. So I’m still having a pretty rough time talking today, and therefore won’t be recording/posting our final installment of the end times study today. I’m sure I’ll have my voice back by the weekend, however, so I’ll try to record the lesson on Saturday.
Sorry for any inconveniences!
Keep growing closer to Jesus…
