It was pouring with rain as I stood at the doorstep under my umbrella talking with the man. Perhaps in his early thirties, he told me he’d done a lot of reading in recent times and was very proud to tell me that he’d, “read the Bible from cover to cover.” However, he said that he couldn’t …

Why do you always quote from the Bible?
One day I rang the door bell of a home and when the two men who answered the door learned the reason for my visit, one said, “Just a moment please.” With that they briskly walked back down the hallway calling the name of another person inside. I distinctly heard the words, “There’s someone who …
