The Danger Of Chronic Complaining Series

Contributed by Shaila Touchton on Feb 20, 2024

I want to write about a man who always complains and murmurs at all times. He is never satisfied with anything and always finds fault in every situation. He complains about his life, his job, his family, and even his church. He is like the Israelites in the wilderness, always grumbling and ...read more
