It has to do with our inner self. It is the greatest challenge of cleansing ourselves innerly. Tom was a quite boy. His ...read more

This is a time of the year for cliches and spiritual sappy-talk. John the Baptist offers a fresh perspective.

Mark 1:1-8 WHAT WOULD JOHN THE BAPTIST SAY TO YOU? Sometimes, when you hear the same thing all the time, it starts to become less and less meaningful. For example, right now, at this time in the year, the newspaper, the TV, and the radio are all saying the same thing: “There is a special sale ...read more
