Favorite Quote:
"General Robert E. Lee was once told by his chaplains that their 'most fervent prayers were on his behalf.' His response embodies what I myself think and feel, 'I can only say that I am nothing but a poor sinner, trusting in Christ alone for salvation, and need all the prayers they can offer me.'"
