		<description><![CDATA[Firewalkers fascinate me. These people have a special something that allows them to look down at a bed of hot coals, unbuckle their sandals or peel off their socks, and step right in. Some see it as a rite of passage, a way to conquer fear, or a way to uncover some hidden vein of [...]]]></description>

The children—Joshua, Mirika, Ashaba, Katseme— look drastically different now that they’ve been receiving nutritious food on a regular basis.

Why would a loving God permit a tyrant’s massacre of children to stain the beauty and poignancy of the Christmas story? Matthew recounts in stark simplicity: “[Herod] sent soldiers to kill all the boys in and [...]]]></description>
