On February 27, we’ll mark thirty years of teaching the Bible on our daily radio program. As we celebrate this milestone, we share a collective sense of gratitude to God for doing exceedingly above all that we could have imagined. And we thank you for your steadfast prayers and giving, which have upheld us for three decades.
