The Value of Sparrows

Pages 260-261 – The Bottle House “Stacy, I’m holding one of God’s promises right here.

Great Expectations

Page 248 – The Bottle House Chaplain Miller nodded. “It’s often easier to see the weaknesses in others before we see our own.

We All Have Scars

Page 234 – The Bottle House Chaplain Miller took a sip of his coffee. “We all have scars that affect how we interactwith each other.

God’s Broken Heart

Page 226 – The Bottle House “I think it can be a dangerous thing to give allegiance to someone or something blindly, especially in spiritual matters.

Pages 224-225 – The Bottle House “When you harbor resentment, it’s a dead end— emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.

The Nature of Love

Page 199 – The Bottle House “God is who he is.” Chaplain Miller’s tone only held kindness, not judgment. “He is a God who loves us so completely that his actions or non-actions are always for our good. He loves you enough to die for you. As your baby grows and moves from your womb

Even Servants Need Rest

Page 179-180 – The Bottle House Chaplain Miller narrowed his eyes in concentration. “Yes, there are dozens of verses in the Bible about being a servant to others. We are, indeed, called to be servants of Christ, and that means, in part, that we minister to others. But when we take on so much we
