One characteristic of sheep is that they willingly follow the lead sheep. When sheep are taken to the slaughterhouse they ...read more

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 7, 2022

Once we cast a vision and begin laying hold of the Promised Land, we need to watch out for deceptive people; those who creep into the fold to snatch away our vision, and plunder our hard-earned spoils in an act of spiritual piracy.
