How awesome is that? I mean, we’re talking about the land of the nicest people and the country that’s the home of the Canadian standoff: “You go first.” “Oh, no, you go ahead.” “Ah, I wouldn’t hear of it. You go, eh.” “Ple...

You will either become bitter or be better as you experience failure in the many areas of life. At first glace, the topic of failure seems opposite the themes we hear many preaching as they talk about victory, overcoming, and conquering. Our victory is in Jesus. We fail to learn we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. Nothing of eternal value comes out of our own...

Author is unknown but mentioned that different full moon nam...

I swung out a loop and began twirling it as I had been taught, when it suddenly occurred to me that a freshly branded...

All three Blue Ponies have signed NAIA national letters of intent to play either tennis or g...
