My friend, Greg, had another great post this morning re: forgiveness. So come on over to Greg’s Watering Hole today and take a sip of his brew. It’s straight from the Living Water!
I have heard parents dither about when to talk to their children about sex. I submit that most children know the ‘right’ and ‘wrong’ of sex, drugs, and drinking. There are more pressing issues: Bullying– I have heard three generations now bemoan how “children today are so cruel!” and then do nothing more than tell…
My husband came home last night after being gone through the weekend on a business trip. He came home with flowers. He doesn’t just bring me flowers for an occasion. In fact usually, we seem to have money in our budget for “extras” like flowers when it isn’t an occasion! I so appreciate when Henry…
