Rad
As a perpetual student of joy, I am most riveted to its source.

The bad things will become good.
The good things will never be taken away.
The best things are yet to come.
Jonathan Edwards understood this deeply.
My daughters ... arm-locked by Christ's gracious mercy.

We have to allow the trimming of what stunts.

A pastor recently taught me a dietary lesson.
The true culprit of spiritual atrophy is sweet pie.

Deep
Once in a while you come across a personal confession that takes you into the depths.
