If only graves could speak…

March 1, 2016 By Tamera Alexander

When “the end” is really only the beginning

January 5, 2016 By Tamera Alexander

Blessings in this New Year, everyone! I hope 2016 has started well for you, and that you’re still on the positive side of any resolutions you’ve made—if you’re a resolution-kind-of-gal. As 2016 begins, I'm celebrating the New Year, yet also deeply mourning the loss—albeit, a temporary one, due to our steadfast hope in Christ—of this beautiful woman… Judy McMahan, such a dear … [Read more...]
