"McDonald’s Extra Value Meal" that I looked up and saw the bright yellow McDonald’s Extra Value Meal certificate that would be given to the winner. In sixth grade‚ it was cool to be eating a Big Mac and not a Happy Meal. The spelling bee that was about to start all of a sudden became important to me.

Preaching is a responsibility of integrity and faith of the Scripture exhibited through eloquent imagination and dutiful sincerity. To whittle the complexity of preaching down to a simple understanding‚ I would proclaim that it is merely the art of persuasion. Being called to a life of preaching identifies in a person that God would like to use your life circumstances to convince others about Him. An excellent

The eight men in The Color of Fear candidly discussed racism not only as "whites oppressing blacks‚" but also the
