I’ve worn a lot of different hats in my life. As I contemplate the events in our country this morning so many thoughts are running through my head based on each of my life’s experiences. I think what I want to do is explain my thoughts through the various lenses of life I look through. […]
Caesar vs. God
It seems as if I haven’t blogged in forever! I really haven’t!
