    Who do you admire

    Australia s rapidly approaching a Federal Election. I want to say that most governments around the world, whether democratic, socialist or autocratic, generally run their country well. We have a tendency to heavily criticise our political leaders but its actually a difficult job. I'd like to...

    A friend invited me to join his home-based Bible study group about a year ago. He'd been running it from his house with two or three participants for a while.
