THIS MAN IS REAL.

My Spanish is still in the toddler phase. I can easily do greetings and very simple phrases, and understand the most common phrases/terms when they talk, but it’s still really really hard to keep up. Thank God I have Sara here to translate for me the whole time. But, this...

The Power of Speech
“Then God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.”“
