[This lengthy series features the Classic Christian Author: Ruth Paxson. Her style is clear and concise; her in-depth, Spirit-inspired writing, her ability to teach is extraordinaire. I think you will be delighted with her work! This series will be very lengthy. Ms. Paxson starts at the beginning of the Christian life and continues on until the end. Read each article carefully. She has something for everyone! And, by the way, I have changed the background of this blog in honor of Ms. Paxson (sorry fellas if you don't like pink!!) I can change the background back after the series ends - which will take months!
