“Monday, May 27 is once again Memorial Day in America. Like us, many will gather as families and visit the grave of a loved one. I like that tradition, and we will once again do that in memory of Jeremy…” Five and a half years ago, we lost our youngest son Jeremy to an aggressive […]

Everyone has a mother. And yes, in some cases it turns out to be a mother surrogate. That’s someone like an adoptive mother, stepmother, foster mother or a grandmother who takes on the mother role. Maybe it’s an aunt or even an older sister. Most people have strong feelings—both […]

By Dr. KP Yohannan, Founder and Director, Gospel for Asia – As we can see from Scripture, the Apostle Paul had an extraordinary life. What was Paul’s secret? Was it his education, background or abilities? No, it was none of those things. In fact, Paul considered all his worldly […]
