It seems like an easy question. One that comes with presuppositions.

     “How dare you ask me where my faith is! I know I have faith and I know where it is!”

     “Hold on….Do I have faith? It sure doesn’t feel like it sometimes. I may have it...

     Mother’s day is not like it used to be for me—and that’s true for all of us at some point.

     I remember the Mother’s days as a child when Mama would pin red roses on our Sunday dresses in honor of our living mother. I remember when Mama star...
