The Gift of the Little Things
He tried his best to get those two little blocks to fit together, but just couldn’t do it. He began to cry and throw a tantrum right there on the floor. My heart broke as I wanted so badly to just do it for him. My aide said gently but firmly,“Don’t do it, Kamille. He…

The New Age Movement is a mirror image of mankind’s original sin. This is a controversial topic I’m very passionate about and want to bring light to. What was the very first sin man committed? “Disobeying God” you might answer. Let’s dig a little deeper. What was it the serpent used as bait to get…
