Steps – Just Lay It All Out For Me

Stories – They are in all of us
Stories. Some people open up a conversation by asking, "So what's your story?" or "Tell me a story." What would you say to that? Would that strike fear in to your soul? I admit there have been moments in my life when the fear of doing that was tangible. Do you have a story to …
