He gave us our example. He healed hundreds and thousands, and He could have very quickly rushed everybody into the Jordan and baptized them. But He planted seeds and lessons that would stand the test of time, that would last through the ages, that could be understood by people of all walks of life.

Our family loves to be out in God's world. We go on hikes, bicycle rides, swimming, and snow skiing. Being out in the fresh air is so restorative, so renewing for all of us.
