Friday’s Column: Brent’s Biblical Bytes  — The Preacher Pollard Blog

From Common To Crude: “Vulgar” Brent Pollard I am a word nerd.

The Price Of Flight — The Preacher Pollard Blog

Tuesday’s Column: Dale Mail Dale Pollard The cost of leaving God’s presence is more than many fully realize.  It’s interesting how the phrase “away from the presence of the Lord” is used twice in Jonah 1:2-3.  Leading up to the second mention, the text states that Jonah “paid the fare.” In the very next verse […]Continue reading “The Price Of Flight — The Preacher Pollard Blog”
