A lot of the same people who would happily attend a commemoration for Sean Russell in Fairview, would agree with renaming Herzog Park. Yes, we do have a problem in this country...

The Abomination of Desolations in The Book of Daniel Today our subject is the abomination of desolations, perhaps you remember Jesus speaking about this in the gospels, He said ''when you see the abomination of desolations standing in the Holy place, you should flee''
