Happy Birthday Ellen White

Something shifted the day I learned that Ellen G. White and I shared the same November 26 birthday. I was a student at Sligo Elementary School who found much pleasure and inspiration in reading biographies and memoirs for book reports. Booker T.

Dooley III about his experience with refugees in Viet Nam and Laos totally mesmerized me as did the stories of Thor Heyerdahl’s Kon-Tiki adventures.

Exploring the Sin of Moses and Aaron

Readers from all walks of life have found the punishment for the sin of Moses and Aaron to be an enduring and puzzling passage (Numbers 20:12; ESV hereafter).
