In a world with so many options which one is the right one? Which door do you pick? This week we have had yet another round of recommendations and requirements given by the government on how to handle the virus situation. In our lives we cling to opinions we respect like they’re life preservers. But…
What are we supposed to do? Should we wear a mask or not? Should we have our extended family over for that party? What about getting together with friends? Will you shop at a store that mandates masks? These are just some of the questions I’ve heard the past several weeks. The answers to these…
We see some pretty big things in our world. Witness a tornado rip through a town and take one house but leave another untouched – miraculous! See the birth of a child and you’re left in awe. There are life changing moments that happen very day in so many different ways it’s uncanny. But there’s…
