#274: Jesus Never Fails
(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith) 1 Earthly friends may prove untrue, Doubts and fears assail; One still loves and cares for you, One who will not fail.

Sabbatical Update: Wasted effort
I mentioned yesterday on my fitness update that I was postponing my notes because I was going to write a post today that included and effect that was similarly impacting both by fitness and sabbatical progress.

This past week saw days we're getting through the … Continue reading Sabbatical: change but not rest
Fitness Update: A run for the (insert choice of word)
