This Week - May 31, 2026
Coolness and the King
Broadcast Date: May 31, 2026
You know, it’s been said that hell is hot. Well, I’m not so sure that’s true, because, you see, hell is described in scripture as ‘outer darkness’ (*1) or the total absence of light.

As the day progressed, Joyce became involved in the normal…
