Balaam vs Jonah — No Comparison — Or Is There?

by Mary C. Findley Here’s a very brief comparison/contrast of Balaam versus Jonah.

When Bad Things Happen to Good People

by Rebekah Beene This week we will be having a family funeral.  I’ve been processing this incident since Friday.  It’s been very hard.  Danny’s precious cousin lost her life at the hands of someone masquerading as a friend.
