    "Why?" is an oft asked question El Tablazo looked so close. Too close. It happened so fast. Exploding into the jagged 14,000-foot peak, the DC-4 disintegrated with a metallic scream. What was left of the Avianca Airline flight bound for Quito, Ecuador, flamed crazily down the mountainside into ...read more

The Living Bible puts it this way: “Whatever is in the heart overflows into speech”. Sometimes I ...read more

    based on 127 ratings

    The first recorded parable of Jesus is “The Parable of the Sower” (Matthew 13:1-23) but it’s equally the story of the seed and the soils.
