Discerning Truth
We live in the information age where we can look up most anything by speaking into our phones. That instant gratification generally has us more focused on getting answers than in taking the time to vet the answers, or their sources. If the answer seems plausible, that is usually good enough.

Read MoreExposed
I have been working with a corporation the last several months to accomplish an assignment the Lord first introduced to me over three years ago.
