The Rev. Eugene Stockstill

One of the main reasons believers often refer to the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament as "the Word": The pages are filled with words. And contrary to popular opinion, words are quite fun.

Complicated, too. Non-English speakers will tell you that English is among the most difficult languages in the world to learn. Why? Pronounce bear and ear. Do you see? Mom bought me a sweatshirt with the following words on it: "English is weird. But it can be understood through tough, thorough thought, though." Exceptions, exceptions, exceptions to rules.
