Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Aug 23, 2025

All to often in the business world we thrive to succeed at all costs - I want to be the best! Sometimes we do this at the expense of others and we know this is wrong. Jesus taught us what we should be like with other people and how important humility is in our daily lives.

They do not wear shoes as we wear shoes. They wear sandals and the dust and sand cover their feet as ...read more

Contributed by Grant Adams on Feb 19, 2024
