The Danger of Distracting Ourselves

The Danger of Distracting Ourselves

As we come to the end of 2009 and the beginning of 2010 we will begin to see the greatest episodes of self-deception given at any time in a given year.

Do You Value Wisdom?

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction. Proverbs 1:7
Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools because they have to say something. Plato
