Read More ADBC: 38 – Slavery, The Deal with the Devil, And Learning From Teaching?It is not done in my strength. Carrying out the call is only effectively done in the strength of the Lord. Whenever I begin to rely on myself, I sense my pride in being able to handle it; that self-reliance as though my expertise suffices. The folly of that thinking emerges soon afterwards. I eventually […]

I don’t bust out the French that often chiefly because it’s not a language I’ve needed in my everyday life over the past 28 years since completing two years of learning it at school in the thought that it would give me confidence in […]
Read More ADBC: 35 – How The Prime Of Life won’t Be the Death Of MeHere’s the premise of the conversation. Previously in the conversation: When I ask my brother a question, I am assured that he’ll do the best that he can, but what that looks like can vary from entry to entry. Sometimes it’s just good.
