Friend groups had been established, and being an introvert, working my way into them proved difficult. I was a …[ read more ]

    @carol_mcclain   Odd to many, I love the genealogies of the Bible. In them, we find a rich history. I cannot breeze through them because each name tells a story that takes time to understand in order to uncover the depth of meaning. You matter. You’re not a name in a list of names, just another …[ read more ]

    @carol_mcclain The prospect of the righteous is joy, but the hopes of the wicked come to nothing. Proverbs 10:28 Do you find happiness elusive these days?
