Sorry to be gone so long, there’s been a lot going on that’s distracted me from this ministry. I think we’re out of the tall grass for now, and expect to return next Sunday with perspectives on the ongoing health care debate and other issues. We appreciate the prayers and inquiries of those who’ve been writing in asking where we’ve gone—believe me, it wasn’t our plan or our idea, but God opening doors and presenting ministerial and growth opportunities which required this editor’s time and attention. A few breaths in a neutral corner, and we’ll be swinging for the fences next week. We pray you’ve had a blessed August. —Editor
