By Thom McKee
As you look around the place where you live are there reminders of who you are? Or maybe just as important, are there reminders of who you used to be?
If you were to walk through my house, there would be all kinds of reminders of who I am right now.
Thom McKee – Pastor.
Thom McKee – father.
Thom McKee – husband.
But if you look carefully you might see some reminders of things that I used to be, but are not at all anymore
