The God of the 5th Sparrow
Ok, I'm gonna brag a bit first. That title is probably one of my favorites. Not sure if it has been used/thought of before but it just felt so right. I was listening to a sermon on Luke Chapter 12. Christ is teaching His disciples not to worry and brings up the example of how [...]
The Way
The Way Christ is risen. Life can be hard. Having a sense of direction in life is perhaps one of the most challenging aspects of life itself. What do I study, where do I work, who do I marry (or for that matter, should I even get married). But perhaps we make it that way [...]
