A corn maze of deceit

Sun., Oct. 30, 2016

The presidential campaign has turned into a corn maze of deceit, the symptom of a nation wandering in the wilderness. We turned away from slavery and came through division, only to lose sight of the promised land.

Will we continue to go in circles like third-graders in a corn maze, or change direction and seek a leader with integrity? Perhaps we should look up from time to time and get our bearings.
