Waiting Here for You

Tuesday, November 24, 2015
I love everything about the Christmas season… the change in weather (for most of us), the flood of new songs that fill the airwaves, bright lights twinkling and the flurry of activity in every home and store. Most of all, I love the anticipation that all of these things signal. I love the anticipation that Christmas is coming— and with it, Jesus is...

She (rightfully) views the Bible as one great love story that...

**Giveaway has ended. Congratulations Christina Burrell! You are the winner!** I love Christmastime. It is never too early to start celebrating the birth of our savior.
