The Two Dutch: Vincent and Corrie

One of history’s greatest.  World re-known.  Genius. Is that the whole story?  From what I understand, Pastor van Gogh was deeply wounded in ministry.  As an evangelist and pastor, he had big dreams for his life and ministry, but they were thwarted by decisions from leaders.  Vincent became bitter and angry (two of the worst …
