A TRIBUTE TO ALEX – Guest Post and Poem by Kathy McCullough, Pastor’s Wife, Ark City, KS As a guest writer for this blog, I wanted to pay tribute to our son-in-law, Alex. Alex had ALS and went to Heaven over 7 months ago. Before I go on, I am going to share this verse: Psalm 78:19 kjv, “Yea, they spake against God, they said, Can God furnish a table in the wilderness.” Alex married our middle daughter and after they were married, he became a very zealous, faithful young man who loved serving the Lord.

I’ve decided to re-title my monthly book features as “Book Blessings” because what I love to share with you are books that’s been a blessing to me and my family.

Lessons Learned Through Grief – Guest Post
Today I’m sharing a guest post by Jane Coley, Missionary Wife, Kenya… December 17, 2017 ~ Three years ago today (1096 days) after suffering with the flu, our Kimberly went to Heaven, not because she was good but because she knew the Savior. As I grieve for my daughter, there are lessons I am learning.
