    What kind of car?

    My hubby had a 96 Dodge Ram club cab and LOVED it. It finally reached its last legs and he had to get rid of it - but he regrets it to this day. It was the best truck....no problems until it started constantly running hot. No warranty and no money to fix it at the time. He sooooo misses that...

    Bad Situation Advice

    Sweetie first of all let me say I pray for your health and the health of the baby. I am currently pregnant (with twin boys) and know how your body is changing and feeling so I can understand. This situation only makes matters worse. Maybe you can enlighten me a bit as to why your parents are...

    Water Baptism

    I understand. But, he was baptized in water to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit....was he not? It really isn't a point I am going to "argue" over. I have been baptized which is what I felt the Holy Spirit led me to do - which is the entire point anyway. We are to do what He tells us...

    Water Baptism
