Not long ago, a pastor at a large evangelical church in Florida shared a story with me that I can’t shake from my mind.

Guest Blog by: Federico Gutierrez This blog was first posted on Federico’s website which can be found here. Do I praise God because I am fearfully and wonderfully made? To put it shortly, maybe.
