What A Difference A Day Makes Series

Contributed by Dan Jackson on Jul 11, 2005

Try as you will, you get behind in the race, in spite of yourself. It’s an incessant strain, to keep pace.…and still, you ...read more

Healing For The Soul

Contributed by Mari Larson on Jul 25, 2015

Like Elijah, sometimes we feel utterly defeated (as I did by the shootings in Charleston and Chattanooga) but God remains with us through these times.
