While sitting for my Rituximab infusion I read “All That Fills Us” by Autumn Lytle. This is a great story, it reads like one of those memoirs like “Wild”, but a God center version. What attracted me to this book was that this story was centered around Mount Rainer,...

I do not watch the Bachelor or The Bachelorette. It is not my cup of tea. Dating 100 women or men just to find that perfect one to marry seems ridiculous to me. I do understand the power to find your love and commitment. I never heard of Matt James, but I do...
