Great tribute is given to Mary as the chosen mother of the Savior of the World… as should be. But what of the father that God had in mind to be responsible for the upbringing of His Son? How did he respond to hurt and betrayal? What action did he take in danger and testing? How did he...

I went to an art/scrapbooking retreat last weekend, and discovered that my friend Joanna Pinkerton, has been making some incredible Scripture Doodles to correspond with the lessons at her church. Not only are the words of Scripture included in an appealing way, but each page very...
