People who are obsessed are raw with God they do not attempt to mask the ugliness of their sins or their failures. Obsessed people don't put it on for God He is their safe place, where they can be at peace.
Francis Chan

Francis Chan

Francis Chan
Has your relationship with God changed the way you live your life?
