He Is With Us
When Daniel was in the midst of the lion’s den, God was with him. When Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were in the midst of the fiery furnace, God was with them.

Salty Speech
What is it about salt? And how do I season speech with it? Gracious speech is sweet, yet Paul says to season it with salt.
