Is There A Prophet Among Us?
Where are the oracles of God, the prophets whose words strike fear into the hearts of the Ahabs of our nation, and contempt and disdain in those who are the Jezebels of our day? Where are the ones who love their nation passionately, but love their God even more? Is there an Elijah or…

Three Prophetic Words For 2016
Three prophetic words from a casual observer, and a prophet-in-training. Okay, so maybe I’m not a prophet, or maybe I am; but I’ve got some things to say about this coming year that need to be heard. Because I say them? No. Who’s Jan Grace, anyway? No, not because I say them, but because…
