FROM A DISGRACE TO ACCEPTED BY HIS GRACE. Friends, as I was reading up on some of the ladies in the Bible, I saw that several of them, Mary Magdalene, woman at the well, woman caught in adultery; were all a DISGRACE in their community.

One day we were up on the side of the mountain cutting trail and as I took a step back to take a bite with my McCloud, I slipped and almost fell down the mountain side, to what could have been my death or at minimum serious...
