Zoe: “When did your first cancer show up?” Charna: “My first Breast Cancer diagnoses was in 2015 when Marcellus was 9 months old.

September is National Sewing Month!! It started in 1982 in recognition of the importance of home sewing to our Nation. Not that we should need it but anytime an excuse comes up to sew, I take it.

If you enjoy sewing or have been wanting to learn how to sew, make it happen in September as part of National Sewing Month. Even better—how about making something without sewing a single stitch? There are many blogs and videos that show you how to make...

Rather, a more reliable measure to figure out who would advance further in competition was the number of hours a week the student spent studying language and spelling. Students who put in more hours tended to do better. To be...

Scripture makes it very clear that we live only once and that when we die we go into eternity. The Bible says, “It is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment” (Hebrews 9:27). For mankind to hope for a second chance reveals the knowledge tha...
