This is seen in what the Psalmist brings forth in Psalm 115. “Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, But to Your name give glory, Because of Your mercy, Because of Your truth.” (Psalm 115:1) Everything else, that is those idols we set … Read more

Thought for Today: “Photoshopping Our Image” In this world, image is everything. Photoshopping is one of Hollywood’s favorite things to do.
