Doubt

Is it really necessary to see something with our eyes before we can believe it exists? Many of us would answer with a wholehearted Yes!” Yet when we stop to think about it, much of what we do every day is in response to forces, influences, and realities that we cannot see. We hope that you find encouragement and endurance for your journey here.
