Dawn and Steve in the Morning

Hour 1: Bible and Breakfast

Jesus said that there was no one greater than John the Baptist. Yet, Jesus also said that we have the opportunity to be even greater in the kingdom of heaven. Listen as Dawn and Steve in the Morning share a devotional from Blackaby Ministries International based on Matthew 11:11

"Assuredly, I say to you, among those born of women there has not risen one greater than John the Baptist; but he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he."   Matthew 11:11

In addition, author Asheritah Ciuciu will encourage us to start our day by spending time with God! Her two books, Bible and Breakfast and Prayers of Rest, are helpful resources to help kickstart your morning.
