Rachel, A Winning Mother Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 19, 2021

History reveals that mothers who have died when their children were young, as Rachel did, can still have a powerful impact on their lives.

The problem with cliches is that we forget they are true and relevant because we have heard them so many times they have lost their cutting edge. "The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world," is a good example. It is so trite and trivial that it does not even invoke the response of a ...read more
