    Do you ever screen your calls? By that I mean do you look to see who’s calling before you answer? I answer most of my calls right when they happen unless it’s tagged “scam likely” or I’m driving (I haven’t hooked up my Bluetooth yet) or if the phone is in the other room or if I accidentally left it ...read more

Anthony Seel Judges 1:27-36 “The Jesus Way” Have you noticed how “something fundamental has shifted within our American culture in the past several decades?” It’s been called the “collapse of the middle” and part of it is seen in the ...read more
