    Of Superstars And Starlight Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 4, 2009
     | 3,683 views

But if you listened carefully and let your defenses down a notch or two, their work communicated the ...read more

     | 3,475 views

    For the Festival of Christ the King; We rely on false comparisons or we use half-truths to justify ourselves. Far better to find justification in committing ourselves to what God is about in the world.

    There are lies, and then there are lies. Little lies and big lies. Deceptions of all kinds.
