The world is on fire. Social media is on fire. And the church SEEMS to be on fire. But glory to God who walks with us in the fire that we might not burn. We want to be all fighting for some sort of justice. Fighting for those who are oppressed, whether it be because of […]
It’s Christmas Eve, and for many of us we wait the big old man and his sleigh. As kids we love Santa who gives us toys every year. As adults we love watching this fictional character in movies. We love the story of Santa. Overall Christmas is described as a ‘magical’ season, the best time […]
