• Uncommon Sense

  Posted on January 19, 2015 by sdgale in 'CHOP Talk' Blog.

    I have a love-hate relationship with my GPS. Perhaps trust-mistrust is a better way to put it. Either way, we have a problem. Since I am directionally-challenged, I love my GPS. She (and her British accent) have gotten me where I need to go many times. When I ignored her instructions, she has gotten […]

    Parents are called to shepherd their children.   In so doing, parents are to provide for the needs of their children, to guide them in the way of truth and righteousness, and to guard them from the ways of the world and the waywardness of their hearts. In describing the work of a shepherd, the […]
