Success to Significance
Story told by Rick Brekelbaum, written by Kevin Miller
Several years ago I was challenged to think about what I had accomplished in my life, and Lord willing, what I would do over the remainder of the years I may be allowed to live. My upbringing, education and career were centered very much on “accomplishing” (ie: being all that I... >Read More

Good people?
Here's something to think about. Why would Christians have the audacity to claim that all human beings are, quote "sinners"? Isn't that just being unnecessary pessimistic? Aren't people essentially good?
