Changes in our world
You and I have both said it before: “Our world sure is changing fast.” Although it sounds cliché, it doesn’t mean it’s untrue.

Good Deeds for Children
During this holiday season, I try to emphasize the spirit of giving with my family. Last year we tried a more intentional practice of this with our 1st annual “12 Days of Good Deeds”.
