At least in the U.S. many kids in foster care get moved around a lot. I've known kids who had been in over two dozen homes while in foster care. The system ends up at times traumatizing kids even more than they already were. That's why for the agency I was in, we tried to talk the parents out...

I worked in the foster parent therapeutic foster parents program at a private agency for a couple of years. I had the privilege of writing the adoption home study for at least five families that led to kids being adopted. It made me feel like things went full circle since I am adopted myself...

We have had two sessions so far. I was only planning on four sessions. We have had about 6-7 people at each group.

Who do you think he will pick for a vice president running mate? News reports say that he has formed an exploration committee to look into this recently. He has already said he would pick a female vice president candidate

If I was in decent health and had a good mind it would be okay, but otherwise no. Paul said that to be present with the Lord was far better for him. As I think it is far better for us.

I've felt tired today and have been relatively unproductive today. Tomorrow's schedule is completely full

We know that there are sea shells and evidence that even high mountains were under water at some point, so it doesn't seem like a stretch to me to suggest that the whole world was flooded. Yet, sadly some seem to want to read Genesis as nothing more that folklore and miss the whole point which...

I would disagree strongly that Genesis and Exodus are mostly mythology

One day also God is going to take the dust of the ground which was once a person who perhaps lived a thousand years ago and resurrect that person and give them a glorified body.

Reading and studying the Bible are two different things. When I study it, I use a number of bible study tools including looking at the original language and commentaries. You have to consider the context the passage was written in. You wouldn't take most of the book of Revelations literally...

Well, we have only 6 other people in the group I led last Sunday, so it wasn't hard. Everyone had at least an opportunity to talk if they wanted to. At work we have a meeting agenda so it is much easier to know when it is your turn to speak.
