Positive thoughts from a Christian Perspective

  • Must Repentance Happen All at Once?

    My blogging buddy Jeffrey has a daily series where he shares a scripture passage and then provides some brief thoughts. The topic this July 4th was, “Let it go,”– based on Colossians 3:13–and it was all about forgiving the faults of others because, after all, Jesus does the same for us. Jeffrey is quite the…
