To live a better story, the goal must be worthwhile. Thanks to Donald Miller for this. He writes in &#8220;A Million Miles in a Thousand Years&#8221; that wanting a Volvo [...]]]></description>

Through this process, we are to communicate a &#8220;full picture of the gospel.&#8221;]]></description>
