    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,930 views

    Like Hosea's children, we name our selves by our sad history, by our isolation, and by our alienation. But in Christ our Brother all these defects are remedied.

And it depends on whether you have decided to see what is really there or just what you think is there. "Seeing is believing." It depends on whether you can trust your eyesight. My ...read more

    Mankind was the crowning work of God’s Creation. What does it mean that we are created in the image of God?
