Howdy,<\/p>\n
I just wanted to express my gratitude for all of the answers you provide to those who send in various questions. I’ve read through countless responses of yours throughout the years. Now, when I have a question about a biblical topic, I almost always type the question out and add “la vista” at the end because I know there will usually be a great in-depth response. Your material has helped me greatly in personal Bible studies with others, and in teaching different classes at my local congregation. I am a university student and a member of the church. Keep up the great work. It is greatly appreciated.<\/p>\n\t
It is good to know the material here is being put to good use.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
