Years ago, my two sons attended a spiritual gifts retreat for children. On the way home from the campgrounds, the boys’ mother wanted to know what they had discovered.

Acts 11: 19-30 "Love" is one of those sadly misunderstood words in the human language today. What do people usually mean when they say they "love" something or someone? I consulted the American Heritage Dictionary of the Enlish Language. The definitions are ranked by how frequently they are ...read more
