Walk one mile in my shoes. Walk one block in a friend’s shoes. Spend a single day in the life of someone you know. How about spending an hour in the shoes of a person you pass on the street. The girl with the smile, only masking a broken heart. Or the guy who just [...]

He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. Matthew 28:6

And now, the end is here
And so I face the final curtain
My friend, I’ll say it clear
I’ll state my case, of which I’m certain
