This dramatic story follows the life of Samir Majan, a young man from a Muslim family who has found Christ while attending college […]

Express your Thankfulness!

I love Thanksgiving time! One of the ways I have already been able to celebrate the spirit of Thanksgiving is by sending Thank You cards to people who have invested time, skill, and kindness in my life. One letter was to a former Sunday School teacher whose class I attended when I was nine or […]
