never swim alone…
October 23, 2008
I wrote this a few years ago and after an incredibly inspirational night of talk and song at Vanderbilt Divinity School I thought I’d post it for your enjoyment. Never Swim Alone Rule #1 Never Swim Alone. This is one of my rules. When we moved out to the country a while ago I made […]
