It’s that time of year – Christmas is once again a year away, and it’s time for us to celebrate the new year! I know that many people think it makes no sense to make new year’s resolutions, but I always enjoy making them. Although probably the vast majority of the resolutions we create every…

Romans 8:37-39 tells us this: “Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
