    "Oré por fe, y pensé que un día la fe habría de venir y me golpearía como el relámpago. Pero parecía que la fe no vendría.

    "THANK YOU FOR TOMORROW" I like that story about the boy and his father who were planning a trip for the next day. The father told his son that they would go on a very exciting and wonderful trip. He did not tell his son where they would go or what they would do. Nevertheless, the son was full of ...read more

    HE'LL ALWAYS CATCH YOU I love to play with my kids. Even as they have gotten older, they bring me a great deal of joy. But, I confess, it was easier when they were young. Especially my daughter, now 21, used to love it when I threw her in the air. But, as you might guess, that wasn't always ...read more

    One of the most difficult problems Protestant churches are experiencing is the lack of denominational loyalty. Protestants regularly church-shop.
