What do car horns and Christians have in common?

Prologue: Before I dive into this, I would like to state that I am convinced that I do not have the gift of making and interpreting analogies. My wife, on the other hand, has this grand way of building a format to get something through my thick skull with the most simplistic portrait. I love…

A Love Beyond Understanding

Picture with me coming across a young boy, distressed and disappointed.  More than that, in fact, he seems to be consumed with sorrow, even perhaps despair.  Immediately, your heart goes out for this poor kid.  You don’t know what led him to feel this way, but your instinct is to find a way to cheer him…
