It seems cruel that the future of twenty year olds should be cast by older people that want to live in the past.
Will young people vote in 2016 ?
America’s Saul

In April 2006, a friend, Dave Peterson, gave me this blessing. Today, ten years later, I have the privilege to share the fruit of this blessing at Crossroads in Cincinnati. It holds true for all of us.
