Light At The End Of My Tunnel
I was asked by my church to say a few words about fatherhood… probably due to the fact I have helped raise six kids… a rarity these days. In preparation, I reflected on the relationship I had with my own dad… focusing in on some of those teaching moments which were designed to steer me […]
What Would You Give To Be Happy?
