Disclaimer: You will notice that not every organization, resource, person, place or thing noted in these pages is Christian nor in some instances do they always agree with one another. Sometimes you’ll note downright inconsistencies. And so it goes in this world that is run by humans. I am one of them and highly fallible. I hope you’ll point out genuine errors courteously, and consider others’ points of views with an open mind and heart as I will strive to do as well. We are all always learning.
