ALONG THE WAY by Brother Don Collins
Minisermons & anecdotes from Brother Collins. Cost is $12.95 - proceeds support the Baptist Medical Missions International. Dr. Tilley says, "Don challenges us to see life and ministry through a different perspective.  To go beyond what is comfortable and predictable, and reach for a level that compels and inspires people to respond."
