Is this going to be the one? Has God finally answered my prayers and sent my soul mate…
Single Gals and God’s Grace
As a former mediator in family court, I’ve seen a lot of single gals come through our doors. Not a few of these single gals are pregnant teen girls in great financial, spiritual and emotional need.

Single Gal Problems First of all, she was…

You can go to the super market to see magazines with half naked models and articles about…

We need to speak the TRUTH in love no matter where it leads. No matter if it makes you feel uncomfortable.…
