"What do you mean by grinding the faces of the poor?" - A plea for the refugees of Syria

Do not be afraid of anything that you are going to suffer... Remain faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life. Revelation 2:10

What a man looks for in a woman

Imagine walking into a coffee shop, and striking up a conversation with a very handsome man about what he is reading.
