by Rev. Terry Cripe When was the last time you gathered with family and friends to celebrate the Russian Revolution or the signing of the Magna Carta? Those events, along with many others, don’t seem to have much relevance for most of us. But what about Easter? Christians don’t gather on that day simply to
I was terribly disappointed at what appeared (by Synod convention resolution) in the January Witness.
