Today marks 46 years since I put my trust in Jesus. I’m sure I’ve told the story many times. It was a Sunday evening and we were with our parents at Sunbridge Road Mission.

The president seems to make a habit of talking to the big guys and overlooking the little guys who actually have… Continue reading What does it profit a nation if it gains (a very very tiny part of) the World and loses its soul?
