Burning Coles


“You must be out of your rotten mind!” Mr Cole bellowed.

“Me, I'm not out of my mind o” Mrs Cole replied, bunching up her husband's grey T-shirt in her st, she rocked from side to side, ready for a ght. “Have I asked too much? All I need is some money to take care of your children.” She shouted back at him almost shedding tears.

The Azusa Street Revival

GIVEN all the demands that press in upon us as we deal with the stress of the present moment and living in angst about what is to come, it is easy to become disconnected from our past.

That is the negative side of why we should study the history of the Church. The positive side is that there is much in the past that will inspire, breathe into us hope, and create fresh motivation for our own historical journey. History is the harbor of our heritage and the fountainhead of our families. Click Here To Download The Book
