A question from my inbox

The Steps of A Good Man
Thursday, July 17th, 2008Last fall my brother, sister-in-law and I sang this at church.

Farmers Market

Please pray
Friday, July 11th, 2008We submitted the 3rd appeal to probation for James to be able to visit with Lee. Last week, Lee received the decision from his probation agent’s supervisor. He said he will leave the agent’s decision as is for now. No explanation and frankly, I think they didn’t read any of the documents we included. When [...]
