The Happiest Jobs – “In my article on the Ten Most Hated Jobs, there were some surprises. There are also some surprises in the 10 happiest jobs, as reported a General Social Survey by the National Organization for Research at the University of Chicago.” Isn’t it interesting what tops the list…

U.S. Financial Position – This makes it all a little easier to understand, just by removing a few 0’s.

The Spirit and the OT – David Murray is beginning a series of blog posts that will discuss the role of the Holy Spirit in Old Testament believers.
