Hello,

This week I’m writing from a church conference. I’m enjoying seeing a lot of old friends also meeting some new ones. Anytime you get together with a group of faithful Christians it’s a good time.

There was a group of our Bible College Students and recent grads that came over also. I’ve been enjoying talking to them and also having fun with them, they are a nice group. These kids are all right.

This week for our US readers taxes are due on April 17^th. So in keeping with that this our topic is Bible taxes. Yes the Bible talks about taxes.

Thanks for the comments and questions. I always enjoy them because it means people are reading.

The Google+ site is remains down. I am working on it hopefully it will be up in a week or so.
