    In this chapter, we are going to talk about how the Philistines succeeded in appeasing the wrath of an angry God in spite of the fact that they were idols worshipers.

As much as possible, we want to be obedient to Him and ...read more

    This is a special day set aside to honor our mothers, and grandmothers, because we love them so deeply.

    Often a mother’s assignment in life is very difficult. Now if anything negative can be said about mothers, it would be about the names they give their children.
