Messiah

I feel inspired that Messiah maintains an essential focus on service…

I would identify as a young adult in some areas and parent in others. Firstly, I will state that I did not want to pursue this degree. Indeed, the Lord has a sense of humor. Every time this pathway opened, I would plead like Jonah to find someone else, But Jonah rose to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD. He went down to Joppa and found a ship going to Tarshish. So he paid the fare and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish, away from the presence of the LORD. (Jonah 1:3)…

Cancer kills the lives of numerous people every year, even your loved ones. My Aunt Laura died from a yearlong fight with cancer in 2011. She passed away; unfortunately, at an extremely young age holding her loved ones in her hands as she took her last few breaths before leaving this world and saying goodbye. Even though she had cancer, Laura did not let this stop her from living her life to the fullest. Laura was an overcomer against cancer because of her strong faith in Jesus Christ. My Aunt…

However, Joseph the carpenter has been considered to be his father. The two gospels…

Performed In Mequon, WI, 4 soloists including a large Chorus and Baroque style orchestra performed.

Now, this concert was very baroque in nature and differed greatly from the standard contemporary music…

Although Bertrand Russell makes some compelling arguments he makes many illogical fallacies within his…
