Please feel free to discuss any issues that you may have in your lives or curriculum you would like to sell or buy, prayers you need, encouragement that you need (we all need that once in awhile) or anything else you want to share. All buying/selling after initial posts are strickly between the buyer and seller. Most of all civility to all persons on this board is a MUST and flaming or any other sort of hostile behavior toward members on this board will not be tolerated.
...and how from infancy you have known the holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. (2 Timothy 3:15)
