This one made me think today…
The Bible tells us that “the Lord loves a cheerful giver!”. It appears that Bro. Franklin has taken this to a whole new level.

With most of the nation in an uproar about the upcoming elections and with everyone telling us what we should look for in a president…I decided to put together my own list of what I think is important in a president.
