| This Week at MissionWay... |
Excess Baggage: Choosing to Lighten the Load February 8-March 1Most of us carry around excess baggage. It might be in the form of an emotional issue, a defeating habit, or some hurt from our past. This series will explore how you can lighten your load by checking this baggage in with God, who is ready and willing to claim it. |
