    A brave knight rescues a princess. An elderly man in 1944 opens his door. A church in 1995 goes carol singing. A missionary struggles to convert anyone. And I am lousy at dating.

    ......................... "A sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seeds fell on the path, and the birds came and ate them up. Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and they sprang up quickly, since they had no depth of soil. But when the sun rose, they ...read more
