    When I was in my twenties, I was an avid cave explorer. Now, I just watch caving videos on YouTube. It is interesting how spelunkers will naturally follow a large wide-open passage first. They will bypass numerous smaller ones, all because the larger one does not involve hunching over or ...read more

I have purposely resisted doing that so far, so that Mark can tell the gospel to us himself and we can see Jesus with his witness. What happens when we ...read more
