in mind is the biblical one. And when she conflates me and King David, I’m positive she is thinking of the David who is described as being a “man after God’s own heart” and not David the murderer and womanizer. After all, she wouldn’t be much of....

Stronger than all evil things Two of her uncles went missing, she told us when we asked why she’d left her
homeland as a child. After the uncles, her favorite cousin. She and her brother kissed their parents. Mother said stay away from the roads and take the forest and walk against the river until there are mountains—the mountains are the border. She said your food will last five days....

The entrepreneurial spirit has come to the rescue, however.... “Confessions of a Recovering Evangelical” by Daniel Henderson Why Write
a Book? And Why Did It Take So Long?
