In the middle of all that I am grateful that the good news is about God seeing that condition did something about it. Doing something we could never do […]
Read More On The Run: The Home RunIt can come across as rather presumptuous to think you know how the story goes. After all, what makes you think you know. Who are you anyway? What do you know? So at best it’s good to just let the story tell the story and not get involved in things you know nothing about. That’s […]
Read More How The Story GoesThe power in the testimony is not the person whose life has been transformed. The power in the testimony is what caused that transformation.
