The next two blog posts will be a little different. Julia’s dad (my father-in-law) has professed faith in Christ last week and even got up and gave his testimony during CBC’s services on Sunday. This is a place he hasn’t stepped foot in for years. I was with him briefly

Welcome to a part one of a two part series dealing with masculinity and femininity. This post was written by my dear friend Mary Barba, and she hit it out of the park. Enjoy! – Tim Whitaker. The air was buzzing with sound waves and our friends were all hysterically
Disclaimer: I am not into politics myself but I am into clearing up misconceptions about my Lord. This was one that just continuously caught my eye. JESUS WAS A SOCIALIST!!!! JESUS WAS A LIBERAL!!!!! HE WANTS US TO TAKE CARE OF THE POOR, THE WIDOWS, THE FATHERLESS, THE
