[Faith-talk] Casting Crowns

[Rex Leslie Howard, Jr.]

Matthew 7:6: Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your
pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again
and rend you.

Poor Stephen cast his pearls before swine and they bit and devoured him.

Amen!
I've also heard of a band called Casting Pearls.
I don't know where they got that from, though.
They're lead by a former Bass player for the Newsboys, (my favorite CCM
group.)
Blessings, Joshua
