All nations. Not some, not several, not many; all. The word ‘all’ is, well, an all-encompassing word. It does not leave a whole lot of wiggle room. When you are instructed to do a task, most often you are expected to do the complete task or all of it. Webster’s defines the word this way: […]

It is that time of year…. the seasons are changing, the leaves are changing/have changed, the air is brisk and begins to make you thankful to have a Highland Lakes sweatshirt on (available as a wonderful Christmas gift…but that’s another season yet to come).

To observe the life of Jesus is to note on occasions He withdrew for prayer, for time away from the throngs of people, for a renewed fellowship with the Father. These times were in places of quiet out-of-doors. Apparently, this need still exists for every age group among us. The education of our people is […]
