They All On Me
I have written a post addressing Cutthroat street posters before, but this time, I want to address this one particular poster that after six months, still remains posted up on an electric box on the corner of Fannin and Wentworth in Houston.

Ace of Grace
Grace is defined as God's unmerited favor. That is, grace is God doing good for us that we do not deserve. It's been a rough few days here at the office.

Roaring Waves

Bearing the Image of God: The Awakening
Don't you love it when God puts something on your heart and then by paying attention to the things around you, God answers your questions?
