Building Our Steel Arch Garage Part 6 – End Wall Woes
Summary of issues with the end walls caused by roll-up door stiffeners provided too short from the manufacturer, and my mistake of accepting the advice of the door company representative to press on with narrower door openings caused by base connectors delivered from the manufacturer too long.

An(other) Appeal for Salvation in Christ for My Non-Christian Loved Ones
Yet another heartfelt appeal on behalf of my beloved friends and loved ones who have not yet called upon the Name of Jesus for salvation. Our hope for eternal life and forgiveness of our sins can only be found in Jesus. Satan’s program of lies designed to distract us from the Truth of the Gospel is reaching a crescendo, and I am convinced that the time is drawing very short until Jesus returns to overthrow satan’s wicked regime, and (re)establish God’s dominion over the Earth as it is in Heaven. Time is very short for those who will to believe the Gospel of Jesus and call upon His Name for salvation.
