""Search us, O God, and know our hearts today; try us and see if there be some wicked way in us; cleanse us from every sin and set us free.

"In the name of your son, the living Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen." "

n the truth shall set you free...

As diverse as all the other animals in the world.

We have unique perspectives.
