Those Old Testament Dynamic Duos were mighty (and sometimes they were mighty bad), but every one of them showed us that God can use our idiosyncrasies to His glory.  Some were married, some not, some were associates and some were relatives, but all of them found their way into God’s eternal purposes.      This series will run from January 20  through March 31.
