“Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth.” (1 John 3:18, ESV) Yesterday was Valentine’s Day.  Like many husbands, I got my lovely wife a sweet card and took her to her favorite restaurant to eat for Valentine’s Day.  To be very honest, Valentine’s Day is theContinue reading “The day after Valentine’s Day…”

Adrian Rogers remains one of the most influential people in my life.  Other than the Words of God in the Bible, the words of Adrian Rogers have influenced me more than any other.
