During one of my quiet times with The Lord last week I found myself whispering during prayer, "Lord, life with you is just so much better." This wasn't some strange, unknown affection for me. It wasn't the first time I've whispered this to Jesus during the stillness of the early morning and it certainly will … Continue reading The invitation to abundant life.
Why do people who can dunk choose not to?
I've been watching a lot of high school basketball recently. I have seen some ridiculous shots this year.
