Abundant Life
Dear Abundant Life, Have you ever walked into a single person’s apartment and wonder where the furniture was? Or maybe see the lack of kitchenware?

Wow!
This week at church, we discussed how God reveals himself to us in nature. When we look up at the sky there is no doubt that it is filled with wonder, beauty, and power. A power we may never full understand, but our God has. We can’t capture this power in a jar like the…
