Remembering Mom
(Today is the first anniversary of my Mother's death. I have officially been an earth orphan for one year. I thought I would share with you what I shared with our church last year as part of our Thanksgiving service.) 1 Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through …
God Thoughts – the struggles of a message bearer (an aside)
As I prepare to present my favorite message in the whole world, Christ our Life, I sit in a flat in Warsaw, Poland trying to keep my concentration on editing the "Simply LIFE" material I have worked on the past few years, so I can share it in the time that has been set up …

God Thoughts – The View from Crikvenica
