My fellow Duranians - I have to skip today´s weekly live stream until tomorrow where I will be speaking about Psalm 137 which someone here asked me about some time ago.

So please join me at 19:00 CET as we go into the weekend with some joy and happiness.
With the word of the "Black Eye Peas" - Where is the love?

Looking forward to seeing you
