    In my studies this week I came across these words from a book in my office called, The Jesus I Never Knew, by Philip Yancey.

    I love my boys. I thank God everyday for blessing me with such good children. There is one thing that I believe all children go through. It is a sense of bewilderment when given a series of jobs. For instance; my children and I can be cleaning up the yard. I can tell Benjamin to go and pick up ...read more

    I will never forget the day I watched about 40 khaki-clad men get off an old rattletrap brown bus in Houston, Texas. Some had scars on their faces.
