This month, Jan and I said goodbye to our front lawn. The problem we had with our front lawn was that it produced nothing but an image. It offered us nothing in return. As the transformation began, we gave away our lawnmower (Hallelujah!) and began the work...
I've read editorial comments and watched videos about the depredation of wolves that have been introduced in certain parts of the nation. Wolves are causing millions of dollars of damage. This topic has created controversy and strong opinions on both sides of the...
We have entered a moment in history where our faith will be tested in ways this generation has not experienced. We must remove every unnecessary weight from our faith that would weigh us down and prevent us from changing course in a moment’s notice. The coming events...
