People who claim to do miracles have attracted crowds in the past. You don’t hear of miracle workers today – in the mainstream, anyway.

Thomas Wolfe years ago wrote a novel: You Can’t Go Home Again.  You may have read it, or experienced its inescapable truth. If you go home again, you’d better not stay. Too bad Jesus didn’t get the message before he ventured home to Nazareth one day. Continue reading January 31, 2010: Going Home Again – But Not to Stay
