Hugh discussed on House of the Risen Son

Automatic TRANSCRIPT

You see. the reality is. Is that success with compromise failure. You see better to in hugh in. Who's in who's is. Are we talking about the scripture. Says there. It's better to walk in his integrity. It's better to live differently. Veteran whose view though.
