I felt Holy Spirit say, … [Read more...] about LORD, I’M SO CONFUSED!

How do you teach anything? I’ve been a certified teacher for almost 20 years.

Hey, there! Let me start with a dumb question: do you see a lot of scantily clad women on C-SPAN? Of course not. If women want to get anything done on Capitol Hill, they have to play by the rules!
