People like to know what they think and what they believe is true because that would be important. However, that is not what happens because sometimes, maybe often, people think and believe what is not true. This is a problem. If a traveler is headed in the wrong direction, they will not arr...

The issue is not the issue. What does that mean? Here is an illustration. This is the scenario. Your vehicle is not running smoothly and you realize something is wrong.

Not surprisingly the Scriptures have much to say about being a servant and servi...

Why is it important to be thankful? Being thankful is a response to having received a benefit. When we are thankful, we are thankful for something, about something, or because of something.

This is very positive. This is true from person to person, t...
