LOOKING FIRMLY UNTO JESUS

DAY 227 The English premier league has presented some very interesting stories in the current transfer window, with one player in particular, sparking a huge bidding war between two big teams.

DAY 218 Whether Peter spoke out of fear, under inspiration or by virtue of the sheer awe of the glory they were basking in matters little for our discourse today.
