Before Adam was aware of his own needs, God had an answer. Consider also how this woman was valued. In the ancient world, a woman was valued for her fertility. Here, the woman i...
Yesterday I was fussing over some flowers in the front of the church where I work in preparation of a memorial scheduled the next day. Walking back to my office I was struck by one of the many banners hanging on the back wall of the church. “We are His Witnesses.” Wow… what a responsibility.

Are we trul...
