Miracle Pearl is Shaming Her Would Be Assassins With Every Heartbeat
A few days ago I talked about God’s use of the weak to shame the strong.

In a similar way, little Pearl Joy Brown is also doing just that. Marybeth Hicks writes: Ruth and Eric Brown … Read More
The Weak Who Shame the Strong
In his first letter to the Corinthians, St. Paul explains how, when God calls people, he does not base his decision on human criteria – wisdom, power, nobility – but often chooses uneducated, unimportant and even despised people in the world’s eye to convert the wise, the strong and the “important”.

Healing in the Fire
For the past nearly six years I’ve spent in the blogosphere, Mark Pickup has been one of my very favorite fellow bloggers.

This Tuesday, July, 3, the Springield News-Leader ran the following letter from Jane Pitt: I have given much thought to Richard Stoecker’s letter (“Vote for Mormon against beliefs,” June 15).
