Another reason to draw nearer to Christ by study and applying His teachings. This goes against everything the modern philosophers will teach. According to today’s teachings followers of Jesus Christ are narrow minded and naïve. Modern day disciples are attacked for their limited view. But that is a false stereotype. Continue reading
I recently went to a Pam Tillis concert. In preparation, I dug out my old CDs so that I could become reacquainted with the reason I wanted to go listen to her perform. I had boxed up all my country-western music when I moved out of my country phase. But the good CDs I kept. This was an example of one I kept. Continue reading
