For some reason, I find this man’s story absolutely fascinating.

The good news, though, is that Noah was obedient!

“I attended a baptism service of someone who said they came to Christ as a result of seeing our Ark.”
Wow! One soul is worth all his effort.
I remember the claims that Mel Gibson’s movie was going to bring revival to America. Good call...... Did anyone get saved watching that film?
