    Posted on Monday, February 4th, 2019 | Filed under Blog | Tagged: @carol_mcclain, Carol McClain, caves, danger, darkness John 1:9-13, morality, truth, Writing Redemption

    by Carol McClain    @carol_mcclain Have you ever toured a cave? Last year, my family and I explored the Lost Sea in Speedwell, Tennessee. Lights strung along the path led us over ledges, around stalagmites, past underground streams. Deep into the cavern, the tour did what all cave tours do. They turned off the lights.

    by Carol McClain   @carol_mcclain Who judges? Not me!

    By Carol McClain @carol_mcclain Did you realize if you drank yesterday’s poison, you would still die? Lately, my blogs have dealt with the power of forgiveness. Forgiving never condones. It sets you free. Furthermore, friendships are critical to our lives. Without the power of honest friends, we may never be able to forgive. Today, I’m taking a …[ read more ]

    By Carol McClain:    @carol_mcclain In 1937 King Edward VIII of England gave up his title and power and glory for love. He loved a sinner–a married American  in the process of divorce.
