My name is Christopher Dryden. I am a messenger of the gospel of Jesus Christ. True story. I loved journalism. For a while I wanted to be a journalist. In fact at one time I was seriously studying towards a career in it. One of the things I liked about journalist was the opportunity to […]
Read More MessengerThere’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. Someone draws a picture and it gets praise. Someone makes a meal and it gets praise. You name it and it gets praise for it. A lot of […]
Read More It’s PraiseworthyGeography wasn’t a subject I was particularly interested in at school. It wasn’t a very boring subject, it just wasn’t one of those that grabbed my interest.

Read More The Old Rugged Cross Made the DifferenceI was having a conversation with a very good and dear friend. We were talking about necessary changes and moves in life.
