OPINIONS ᏃᎵᏍᎬᎢ
SPEAKING OF FAITH: Jesus is our rock and salvation

COMMENTARY: Tribal aging
The title is a little misleading, because we are going to talk about aging in general and elder abuse in specific. As we plow through (another consequence of getting older is an acute perception that time is going by faster) Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we should take a moment to consider the needs of our senior members of life.
SPEAKING OF FAITH: Lead us ‘By Still Waters…’
When asked to set up a counseling session, I always ask that person what Scripture verse or verses they have been standing on in their prayer time. They can always be found in His Living Word.
