Dave guest preached at Selah Church Fredericksburg.

Jesus’ heart was not an open door that anybody could just come in and trample however they wanted. With scripture after scripture, Dave unpacks how Jesus guarded his heart, and how we can guard our heart the same way Jesus guarded his.

This is real-life, Biblical stuff that most of us have never been taught, but should’ve been.
