Angels of God 01: There are Good Angels!

There are good angels. That is where I want to start this series. There are good angels.

Get Beyond the End of Your Nose 05: Even Tax Collectors Love Themselves!

They live on roller-coaster bouncing from envy to strifeContinue reading “Get Beyond the End of Your Nose 02: Do Not Promote Yourself!”

Get Beyond the End of Your Nose 01: It’s Not All About You

Salvation Armies across the UK and further afield gathered to read this powerful telegram, sitting in their church halls with expectation for thisContinue reading “Get Beyond the End of Your Nose 01: It’s Not All About You”
