I remember the day when a few years ago my 8-year-old daughter told my wife a boy asked her out at school. The good thing is my daughter told him she would have to ask her parents first – YES! When my wife told me about this I was taken back. My little girl was…

What do you remember most vividly about your wedding day? What stands out? I’m sure the venue, guests, decorations and even the food was spectacular.

Backbiting, complaining, murmuring, anger, bitterness, rage, offense…all things that have no place in anyone’s life, especially a disciple of Jesus. Have you ever been given the cold shoulder by someone? We all have at some point. That happened to me recently with another believer. I spoke, waved, and nothing. Just a glare. I even tried…
