Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Aug 31, 2021

Be Your Own Boss!

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 23, 2022

Two men and a woman applied for this job. The day came for the final test to see which person would get ...read more

Make Us A King To Judge Us

Contributed by Jose R. Hernandez on Apr 9, 2011

There is a very popular saying that states, “those that ignore history are doomed to repeat it,” and this is the theme that we will explore today. Today we are going to learn a very valuable lesson from a terrible decision.

In other words, we allow ourselves to be led by our feelings, and the worst part is that we allow ourselves to be led by the things of this ...read more
