major changes to entire towns, we may need to begin making even more major changes in our personal lives. Failure for us to begin doing so may end in us simply not being around much longer.

I love the people of my home and pray for the situations of so many to improve on a daily basis, but if lasting changes are to be made, it’s going to begin with each person deciding they’re tired of business as usual and being willing to begin major changes in their own personal lives.
