The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg discusses the topic of signs, leaven, and Peter's confession, drawing from various passages in the Bible.

He urges people to have a sincere relationship with God and not to depend on half-heartedness in face of the challenges that may come.
