I regret having to cancel: The “Tools for Soul Gardening” workshop for tonight.  We are experiencing some plumbing issues that are not resolved, at this hour, so choose to take the stress down a notch.

My last blog came out of the first chapter of James asking, “Have you passed your test?  Today I want to ask, “Have you considered what it cost to fail a test?”  While pondering that question it is important to realize that God knows every test we will face so He has already provided the…
