Rebel With A Cause

Cassidy Pocock tells us that everyone has at least a small rebellious itch in them, but the way most "rebels" behave isn't true rebellion at all. If you want to be a real rebel, you'll follow the greatest rebel of all time and the founder of the greatest rebellion, Jesus Christ.

 

Luke 6
