By Lisa S. Tarno I am reading now about the life of Job. What’s amazing about this God fearing man is found in the very first chapter when calamity is thrust upon him with his first four messengers of doom, Job’s response was to still praise God and have the wherewithal to keep a good…
By Lisa S. Tarno I’m reading the fascinating story of Genesis again. My favorite out of the book is Joseph’s story.
