    Knowledge is important, but insufficient. Man’s wisdom is folly compared to God’s. So, what good is knowledge if faith is all that we need?

I am richly blessed to be a graduate of Evangelical Theological Seminary. My course of study (Master of Divinity) included five semesters in systematic theology, among the most ...read more

    Don't we all want to be richly blessed, that comfortable retirement, the slippers beside the fire, the 2.5 kids visiting with the 2.5 grandchildren and a golden labrador. Blessings are a wonderful thing!
