Faith & Food #2: Noah at the Beginning of the World

Introduction

"Man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God." Life does not consist in even the necessary things for living—food, drink, clothing, shelter. Man's greatest need is NOT those things that sustain his earthly life. Man's greatest need is the Life-Giver Himself.
