Gospel Friendship: An Important Consideration for the Church

by Christina Fox, in category Community

SUSAN SHEPHERD|CONTRIBUTOR “I love my computer because my friends live in it.” That meme popped up on my Facebook feed recently with tongue-in-cheek humor, revealing a trend that is a sad diagnostic of our generation.  Even the fact that it was posted, liked and shared on Facebook is ironic…and telling.

A Father’s Legacy

by Christina Fox, in category Relationships

KATIE POLSKI|GUEST My father passed away fourteen years ago. I loved him so and still miss him greatly, so Father’s Day still brings to the surface tender emotions, as it does with many.
