    Great is an overused word today, but right to describe our Great God. Awesome is even better

    Watching the Browns’ exhibition game last week, I was very critical of the announcer’s overuse, even misuse of the adjective ‘great’. Ask Cathy. Their effusive descriptions focused on one rookie, who wasn’t even chosen until late in the draft because of concerns about his ability to play ...read more
