At work, our superiors. In church, pastors and leaders. As citizens, our government. • None of these authorities is ...read more

He was not far from the house when the centurion sent friends to say to him: “Lord, don’t trouble yourself, for I do not deserve to have you come under my roof. 7 ...read more
