Where My Soul Takes Refuge
by DR. Ron Harvey on March 22nd, 2025
I read a story from World War II about a US marine who was separated from his unit on a Pacific island.

Scrambling for cover, he found his way up a high ridge to several small caves in the rock. Quickly he crawled insi...  Read More

Be A Friend
by Dr. Ron Harvey on February 22nd, 2025
Last Sunday I spoke on the subject That’s NOT What Friends Are For! Today let’s continue to think about friends and friendships. Most people would say they have friends.
