A Biblical worldview for a world in search of the Truth
When I was a junior in high school I, along with a handful of friends, hiked the trail of the 14,492 ft. Mt. Whitney. Standing as the highest mountain in the continental United States, Mt.

A few weeks ago I was running late for a meeting. Even though it was an important meeting I wasn't worried about my tardiness because I knew why it had happened. It was my intention to get there on time and I even left the house with more than enough margin to make it but... Continue Reading →
