Saint & Sinner

Over the last few weeks I read Ted Dekker’s Sinner and Saint. Both were great reads, as is typical with Dekker books. The books are a continuation from an older book, Showdown.

Pictures from Indiana
In my last post I promised some pictures from our trip to Indiana. Enjoy! This one just struck me as funny. Seems to me that “prepay” would have to happen in advance. Maybe it’s just me.
