Hello again, Roses! Beth Cordle here, bringing you Part Two of our Interviews With Wise Women. I hope you were all blessed by Part One and that this final installment is a help as well. If you haven’t already read part one, be sure to read it here! I once again pray that this article …
We love ‘em. We can’t stand ‘em. We live with ‘em every day. Siblings are a part of most of our lives, and as you probably know, they can get a little frustrating here and there. But siblings are also wonderful companions and friends. So, as Christians, how can we get along better with our …
Why do you do devotions? What motivates you to spend time with God? Maybe these questions feel a little silly to you. God tells us to study His Word and talk with Him, which gives us a pretty clear reason to do so. Along with that, the only way we can really come to know …
