This is Right Outside Your Door
This is Right Outside Your Door Have you ever been to a church or maybe a government building or monument that has dozens of flags from all over the world? If you’re Canadian, one of the first things you do is try to find the flag(s) of your country of origin, or the flag from…
Read MoreWomen With Swords
Women with Swords In this week’s Motivational Monday (Episode 27) we’re looking at 2 Timothy 1:7, “For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.” The Bible (also known as the scriptures or God’s Word), is described in Ephesians 6 as the “sword of the Spirit”…
Read MoreIt Works When You Work It
It Works When You Work It I love Yonge Street Mission.
