I saw the 100 yr memorial event in France at the Arc de Triomphe in France on Armistice Da/Veterans Day where 70 countries were represented in a gathering to reflect on the signing of the armistice that ended World War…

One of the greatest blessings I’ve had is to be allowed to reap the consequences of my sin in a less-than-full manner than what is deserved.  I pray for the daily visibility of my inadequacy so that I don’t harm…

Finish this statement with me, "Set it, and . . . .”  Ron Popeil summarized how we expect to see things operate in our modern world.  Just plug it in, turn it on, and let it do the work.  I…
