Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on May 23, 2021

Keep To The Script

Contributed by Charlie Roberts on Mar 23, 2018

When Life Hurts

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Aug 19, 2019

Sometimes life makes us feel like we're getting pummeled. We're get pounded with left hooks and uppercuts and we don't have a chance to cover up and defend ourselves. Is this an appropriate analogy of how some of your days go? What can we do when life hurts?
