Keep Calm and Carry On
“See the hole in the skyline?” I leaned forward and followed the finger of the driver. He was a rotund guy named Frank. Neck too big for his collar, hands too thick to wrap around the steering wheel. He pointed through the windshield at the forest of buildings called Lower Manhattan. “The towers used… The post Keep Calm and Carry On appeared first on FaithGateway.

For the next hour, we should: beware.
