Advent, Thirty Days of Jesus: Day 14, Propitiation
By Elizabeth Prata Propitiation. A hard word to pronounce…and a hard word to understand, but we have to try, since the verse says this is the reason God sent His son.

There have been a few occasions when, a minute later, I’ve asked myself, “Did I close the garage?” I’ve never questioned the… Continue reading This is Too Good Not to Share
