Are single people aware that it's OK to desire sex? While we know about the law of chastity and the dangers of pornography, we don't always talk about the beautiful side of our sexuality.

Moses felt very inadequate with his new task of liberating Israel from Egypt. There are great lessons here for any of us who also feel inadequate with the tasks that we have to do.
Is God ever out to get you? Is he waiting up in the clouds with a thunderbolt, ready to strike you with it?
When Daniel Kish was a toddler, he got around. One night he climbed out of his window and made his way over multiple chain link fences, but the neighbors knew who he was. "All the neighbors knew who the blind kid belonged to," he says. As a kid, Daniel climbed trees, rode bikes, and swam in pools. Today he is one of the world's leaders in human echolocation and does pretty much whatever he wants. And he's teaching younger generations to do the same. Part 2 of 2.
