Letters to Myself: In Everything Give Thanks

Guest Post: Where Did “True Love” Go?
It's a pleasure to once again have my friend, Connor, write for The Remnant. Not only is he a great writer and fantastic world-builder, but he's also a wonderful, godly teen who is going to do great things. This well-researched article talks about the disappearance of "true love" in our society and what the solution to getting it back is. Welcome back to The Remnant for another guest post, Connor!
