One of my bands that I am associated with has had the fortune to be associated with a dynamic Ministry called Common Ground. Common Ground is located in Haverhill, MA.

Many people had their needs...

IN FACT, THERE ARE REFERENCES THAT HE HAD NO EDUCATION. (JOHN 7:15 And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?) THE FIRST PLACE IN THE BIBLE WHERE JESUS ACTUALLY SPEAKS IS WHEN HE IS 12 YEARS OLD AND HIS PARENTS FOUND HIM IN THE TEMPLE WITH THE DOCTORS, BOTH HEARING THEM AND ASKING THEM QUESTIONS. MARY AND JOSEPH WERE CONCERNED AT NOT BEING ABLE TO FIND HIM AND HE SAID TO THEM IN LUKE 2:49 How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business?
JESUS LEARNED TO READ BUT IT...
