The Problem With Praise & Why You Need It

The Problem With Praise & Why You Need It Our world spent so much time muting praise and giving credit where credit is due that we’ve grown into an egotistical and self-absorbed generation.

As much as I wanted to follow God’s plans for our family a return to the classroom after years away terrified me.
