Your move next, then.
Can I suggest a bottle of spirit vinegar in one hand and a bottle of wine in the other? He should soon realize that the windows are not nearly as discerning as his neighbor.

Training Videos
I’m currently engaged in gathering together a new group of intercessors for St Mary’s. That means thinking about training for them and I’m trying something that’s new to me.
