From 1967 to 1978, The Carol Burnett Show came into my home with music and comedy that even my parents thought were appropriate for their 13-year-old daughter. And their daughter, me, thought the show was GREAT! While others in my peer group were watching that groovy show, Laugh-in on NBC, I was glued to the…
Abortion is a terrible thing. I know. I have been through it. It was over 30 years ago and yet I still remember the day vividly. God has forgiven me. I have forgiven myself. It took a very long time for that to happen. Despite my personal knowledge of the long-term effects of going through…
