                    Our house was directly across the street from the clinic entrance of John Hopkins in Baltimore. We lived downstairs and rented the upstairs rooms to outpatients at the clinic. 
One summer evening as I was fixing supper, there was a knock at the door. I opened it to see a truly awful looking man.

                    ILL.  One of the most incredible stories of forgiveness I’ve ever heard came out of Tulsa, OK, a couple of years ago.  Tom McGee was a young man who went out for a night of partying & revelry.  He got drunk & ran head-on into a car driven by a young man by the name of Ted Morris.  He killed Ted

                    I like the story about 3 prospectors who found a rich vein of gold in California during the gold rush days.  They realized what a great discovery they had, & decided, "We’ve a really good thing going here as long as no one else finds out about it."  So they each took a vow to keep it secret.

                    You’re probably familiar with the book "Moby Dick". Even if you’ve never read it, you know the story:  Captain Ahab goes in search of a great while whale, and is finally killed when the whale attacks and destroys his ship. But you probably didn’t know that this scene in Herman Melville’s novel was

                    Norman Cates shared the humorous story of a guy who prayed this prayer every morning: "Lord, if you want me to witness to someone today, please give me a sign to show me who it is." One day he found himself on a bus when a big, burly man sat next to him. The bus was nearly empty but this guy sat

Of all the denizens of the garden, the most beautiful and most beloved was gracious and noble bamboo. Year after year, bamboo grew yet
