Proper Purpose
Dear Proper Purpose, Too often when we are single we forget our purpose. We get so caught up in our need for a relationship that we lose sight of why we were actually created. Instead of using our free time in staying busy serving Jesus, we waste hours trying to pursue and snag an available…

Not so Glamorous

Bozo or Boaz
