    Let’s get rid of some misconceptions of God. What if you knew that God really loves you? What will happen if you let that touch your heart?

    God gets bad press. And I’m not so much talking about in Newsweek or in the PD or on NBC, ABC, or CBS. I’m talking about in your mind… and mine. Some of us think that God admits us begrudgingly into his Kingdom. That Christ found a loophole in the law. That He did some fancy plea-bargaining ...read more
