It is a power-packed Old-English word that paints a haunting image in you soul. I pray that this podcast moves you to action to in being a light bearer of Jesus Christ to those who are </em>not just people <em>walking</em> through the dark. These are people who have become part of it. When you awaken to the full truth about the condition of lost souls without Christ, it will overwhelm you with compassion to move out of your comfort zone, beyond yourself, into the wilderness of sin to reach those whose instincts, fears, and MEMORIES are TRAINED IN THE NIGHT.</p><p><a href=\"https://www.transformthiscity.org/donate\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>DONATE</strong></a><strong>&nbsp;You can help support this podcast by clicking</strong>&nbsp;<strong>our secure PayPal account.
