Change of Plans

Date Night Principle: Generosity Melts the Heart

This is a quick and sweet story. Britt and I had an excellent time with some friends in Gatlinburg this past week on Spring Break. One of the mornings, Britt and I wanted to pull away and spend some time together, we also brought our one…
