Join Pastor Jason as he shows us what God has to say about being a strong man of faith.
And as this was our Father's Day message, we at Highlawn Baptist Church would like to wish all fathers out there a very Happy Father's Day! And we exhort you to keep fighting the fight, keep the faith, help and be helped by others, and lean on, and submit totally to God...strive to be a Strong Man of Faith!
