Read More To Your Faith …There’s quite a lot of things that get praise. Someone sings a song on television and it gets praise. Someone scores a goal and it gets praise.

Read More It’s PraiseworthyMy guy Stevie Wonder wrote a song about his daughter. He put into song the delight he took in this newborn baby and her growing impact on his life.
