Today is Sanctity of Life Day. Once a year this date rolls around without seemingly any difference from one year to the next. Our country still allows for abortions to happen, and much of our populace either champion it or ignore it. Since 2012 the United States of America has averaged about 650,000 abortions per… Read More »

You could have heard a pin drop in the room that night even though over 100 students were present. We were at the mid-week point of the LIFE Conference, and our group was having its sharing time after the evening session.

Monday is trash pickup day at the McKnight house, and man, did I have a pile of trash this week for our collector. In addition to our large garbage can full of our household trash, we had piles of plastic wrap, cardboard and other building supply leftovers from our shop we are building. On Monday… Read More »
