Forgiveness, Community, and Faith – My Tuesday Three

There are some really great Christian bloggers on WordPress, and I’ve decided that each Tuesday I am going to write about my thoughts on three of my favorites over the prior week. I’m calling it My Tuesday Three. (I was going to do just two,...

This Life Is Full of Blessing – A Poem

It’s Thankful Thursday once again (and I continue to be thankful to Ann for the idea!) I’ve been doing acrostic poems for a while, but decided I wanted to do something different this week. Instead of limited the length of my poem by the number...

The Thief Knew the Miracle of Forgiveness
