A unique look at what is important in my world.
I hope that you enjoy your visit and come back often...
Desiring God John Piper is a
gifted and passionate follower of Christ. His writings
(books, poems and sermons) are some of the most beautiful,
truthful and desperately loving that I have ever
experienced. They are all available for free on his
website
www.desiringgod.org. Here are some
video
clips of John that I found pretty interesting...
My Wonderful
Sister Suzanne Not by birth, but
by choice! Suzanne and I were born on the same day and year
(I am 4 hours older, the mature one :-). We became great
friends in high school and then I was adopted in to her
family. Sadly, she was not strong enough to beat both cancer
and then leukemia (but she gave them a heck of a fight!) and
she went home to Jesus on August 22, 2008.
