the little guy in me is sad
Evel Knievel has died.
I can’t tell you how many times I tried to make jumps on my bike and purposefully fall and do crazy things on it all because of Mr. Knievel.

I’m glad Lee Majors is still around...

I’ve posted this before, but it speaks so much to me and particularly this day.

Suffering
“We are truly combatants in a fierce war. Satan is a very real foe, determined to do whatever is necessary to destroy the Church that is purchased by the precious, spotless Blood of Jesus Christ. Unable to injure God, Satan lashes out at God’s children. Many Western believers feel confused when they hear of Christians suffering such vile treatment at the hands of evil men, because of the...
