Not like a flu shot

Pastoral Messages | October 26, 2016

Little things

Pastoral Messages | October 17, 2016

Little things make a big difference. Don’t take my word for it—just ask the person in charge of marketing at the local Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse in Ann Arbor, Michigan. They came up with what seemed like a foolproof plan to both engage the large footba…

God is not a Christian

Pastoral Messages | October 6, 2016
