Staring At The Sky: Living After The Ascension by Brian Yeich

I have always been fascinated by two particular verses in the first chapter of the book of Acts. In Acts 1:10-11 (NLT) we read, “As they were straining their eyes to see him, two white-robed men suddenly stood there among them.

Julia Foote and the Geography of Witness

What do you know of Zanesville, Ohio?
