And I thought about a Republican senator here in Ohio who came out strong and hard against homosexuality. He came out strong and ...read more

    In difficult times followers of Christ are assured of Strength and Resources as needed. Believers can live in peace and contentment when they know the two assurances in Philippians 4:13 and 19. Those verses provide foundation for biblical OPTIMISIM.
