I’m Back!

I have returned from my brief weekend excursion and am back in the comfort of my own home.

And, as always seems to be the way, I got far too little sleep and am currently operating at a drastically reduced intellectual capacity. This could post a problem as I intend to lead a Bible study this evening, but I will hope, pray and trust for the best.

    Combat Anxiety Through Surrender

    Life is intimidating at times. Sometimes it’s intimidating, sometimes it’s scary, and sometimes it’s downright terrifying. As we gaze into a future that is uncertain or frightening, our natural tendency is to pursue comfort through control. If we can only gain control over the situation, then we can ward off what frightens us and usher…
