As the days grow warmer, sometimes there’s nothing more refreshing than a cold glass of water. Such a thing can restore your strength and clarity, but how many people do without this simple, often-for-granted pleasure (rather, essential provision)?

Comparing then to now, things have certainly changed (a lot!). But at its core, our purpose and mission haven’t changed at all. As we continue on the path of life, we still aim to lead a quiet existence, mind our own business, work with our hands, and charge ahead. Jesus was the answer, is the…
