When I was chatting with God this morning he placed the title “Agent of Change” on my heart. Curious and unfamiliar with this title I felt prompted to look it up in the dictionary. It’s not like I didn’t have a pretty good idea how to define the title myself but I could sense the [...]

The depravity of humankind affects even the smallest parts of the world. The seemingly quaint and innocent rural Thumb of Michigan isn’t immune to the crisis and chaos of the greater parts of the world. My heart breaks for the suffering people in this area. People are broken down and [...]
