Out of Sight, Out of Mind

May 17, 2021 By Harold Long Leave a Comment

“The issue I focus on the most is extreme poverty. I think it’s kind of out of sight, out of mind. I wish there would be more stories about that to connect people to what’s happening. To personalize it, to make it real to people, to inspire them to action.” ~ John Legend Have you… Read More »

January 21, 2021 By Harold Long Leave a Comment

If God is omnipresent, omniscient, and omnipotent, is there anything God can’t do? It’s an important question to ponder because it can lead to some false perceptions of God and ourselves. How is that? If there is nothing God can’t do, why didn’t God stop COVID-19 before it even started? Why doesn’t God heal everyone… Read More »
