Does the Holy Spirit breathe clear and irrefutable witness to your spirit that you are a child of God? Tune in to Dr. Barnhouse and the Bible to hear about the witness of the Spirit.

A bicycle wheel will not function properly if its spokes do not meet in the center of the wheel. We must always remember to keep the Lord at the center of our lives.

How can you learn to center your life in Jesus Christ and enjoy the richness of intimate fellowship with Him?
