Today were building on what I...

Stay away from the chatter on SM and the grocery store magazine headlines about how to start the new year.   Let's you and me focus on what will gently restore s...

Hello Friend, If you've listened to the podcast for any length of time you know that I encourage you to ask all the questions that you need answered. I believe that our Heavenly Father encourages us to ask those questions. Even the virgin Mary "pondered" things in her heart. Ponder means to think about something carefully, or to consider something deeply. I want to introduce a new thought that you...
