GALATIANS 5:22-23 (NKJV) “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.” Hello TTP family!

However the Lord did not leave them destitute; He sent an angel to visit a man from the clan of Abiezer, who was threshing wheat at the bottom of a wine press. This man’s name is…

Hi TTP Family. We are stoked to bring some bible stories to life along with some practical lessons in our new series; EMUNAH, which is the Hebrew word interpreted as faith.
