     | 2,005 views

    William Bennett, author of “Vanishing Values,” dealt with how the American values our forefathers held dear are rapidly vanishing in our age.

Look at Judges 17:6. We read, “In those days ...read more

There was something about the idea that we would have her for only one or two days and would likely never see her again. ...read more
