I’m working on my fiftieth year of life.  In all that time, if the church doors were open I was there.  Many times I have been asked to memorize Matthew 28:18-20–the Great Commission.  Many times I have been asked to memorize Mark 16:15.  Never have I been asked to memorize Luke 24:47.  Why?  May I [...]
