Abundant Love

On October 15, 2018December 31, 2018 By Anna PollardLeave a comment

Hi, it’s been a while for many reasons, but I’m thrilled you are here. I don’t know where you are or how you’re feeling today, but I think many of us can agree on these things: loving people can be hard and remembering God’s truth can feel impossible at times. I’m about halfway done with …

Twin Rails of Great Leadership

On January 22, 2018December 31, 2018 By Anna PollardLeave a comment

Trains need 2 strong rails. Just one faulty rail can cause so much damage. Last week, a train derailed in Washington, D.C. Investigators said this accident was caused by cracks in just a 10-foot long section of rail. Without strong and solid rails, trains can’t get to where they need to go. It’s a new …

O Love that will not let me go, I rest my weary soul in thee; I give thee back the life I owe, That in thine ocean depths its flow May richer, fuller be. At age 20 George Matheson was engaged and going blind. After telling his fiancé of his impending blindness, she decided that …
