    Funeral service for Dock Burgess, whose last day of life was a time of acceptance and calm. We can take hold of contentment by learning to receive, by investing in a relationship with God, and ultimately by accepting grace for life eternal.

We are fearful and afraid; we are anxious. And it is not just that we are afraid of what others may do to us. ...read more
