Some of you, I suspect, believe it and have even advised someone in your family or one of your friends not to pray for patience. I disagree. I pray for patience all ...read more

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 14, 2022

Today we enjoy the freedom we have in America, and think very little about the men and women who bought and paid for it!

Well, that is not the ...read more
