I just got the @WordOnFire Bible. I have various leather bibles, missals, and breviaries; and I must say this is a VERY high quality Bible!

Very impressive workmanship. 😍🙏

Keep working with your head down & your sleeves rolled up. "To be great is to be a servant: lowly, simple, often forgotten. Eschew marks of respect; don’t seek them. Be satisfied with doing your work on behalf of God’s kingdom, whatever it is." [email protected]
