I’ve been thinking a lot about obedience lately. When is obedience a good thing and when should we “buck the system,” so to speak?

Let's not wait for New Years to roll around to make some positive changes. Here's my Fresh Fall Start goals:. 2) Walk the dog every morning for 3 miles. One, only one, a...
