The Bible does state specifically that there were males and females. Even in the loading of the animals into the Ark, they were led in by…

Books. Some can seem magical. There are times that pages out of a book literally take me to the Collosseum of Carthage, where the abrasive sand of the floor can sting my eyes from feeling like I’m in the Proconsul’s balcony seat seeing a ferocious fight. Do you ever feel like that while reading a…

Well I have had moments of inaction thinking that my words wouldn’t help. Sometimes I feel like I am bubbling forth with stories to tell or narrate. It feels weird to say that God has given me a talent for this but honestly and as humbly as I can I have to admit this is…
