Rev. Percy McCray |
30 mins. |

| Who Told You That? |
Rev. Percy McCray |

| Do You Have a Light? |
Rev. Percy McCray |
47:57 mins. |
| As you wage war against the negative effects of sickness, disease, and treatment, have you ever thought about the real purpose of this fight?

Listen and be challenged … do you have a light? |
| I'm Willing |
Rev. Percy McCray |
41:23 mins. |
| Have you ever wondered if you possessed the ability to endure the process of sickness and treatment?

| Declaring Our Oneness with Christ, Part 1 |
Rev. Michael Langham |

| Why Me, Lord? |
Rev. Percy McCray |
30 mins. |
| Probably the most frequently asked question in the midst of difficult situations is, "Lord, why me?" Did you know that God desires to communicate His love, mercy, and power to all mankind? God desires to write a message to planet earth, and, in many cases, we become His stationery of correspondence that He is mailing to others! So instead of "why me," how about "why not me?" Anyone have a stamp? |
| Amazing Grace |
Rev. Percy McCray |

| Who Told You That? |
Rev. Percy McCray |

| Scope of Your Hope |
Rev. Percy McCray |
30 mins. |
