Numb to Sin
Dear Wake Up Family: Have you noticed that we never hear sin called by its plain old-fashioned name anymore? These days, a drunk is not a sinner, he’s just a sick man in need of treatment. Liars aren’t liars and thieves aren’t thieves, they’re simply embellishing their social media profiles or made mistakes while tallying […]

Being Chosen
Dear Wake Up Family: My grandparents adopted me in 1963. Back then, parents did that when their daughters were underage and unwed.
