Reflections: A Perspective on Leaders

Very soon, we all have the opportunity to vote. Did I just hear a collective sigh or was it a groan? I can certainly understand reasons for those responses. It’s been a challenging season.

Is anything impossible for God?

I’ve heard people say that since the Bible was written by so many people, it must be full of errors. It is generally accepted that the Bible was written by up to 40 authors, some of whom were from different cultures and in many languages over a period of at least 1,500 years. Several books have been written on the topic of the accuracy of the Bible but let’s ponder just a few thoughts here.
