Pastor Granillo: Life After, or Before, Death?
By Pastor Raul Granillo“If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are to be pitied more than all men” (1 Corinthians 15:19 NIV).
There are, and have always seemed to have been, those who think that the concept of a god is nice for establishing morals in society but it really serves no other purpose. There are some think that religion has outgrown its usefulness and is only a source of ignorance and intolerance. Today, there are a great number of people who believe that Jesus was a great moral teacher, but nothing more; and most certainly not a god nor the only real God.

Solo Traveler: Big Mistakes
Solo TravelerWhen I look back on the last five years of traveling I find that I now make fewer mistakes. It’s helpful to think about what the worst mistakes were and what I started doing differently as a result.
The Biggest Mistake of All – Too Much Stuff
On a three-month trip to Europe I took summer clothes, plenty of warmer clothes for fall, and a heavy winter jacket because I would be in Turkey and Italy in December. I packed hiking boots, shoes, sandals, a pair of dressy shoes and a nice dinner dress. I had enough underwear for two weeks and a small backpack with all the stuff Read More
