Paula Fether
Lifelong student of the scriptures
I grew up in a Christian home and a largely conservative denomination, though now I am non-denominational. Over 50 years ago i was given an insatiable appetite for Bible study, and I've put what i've learned online (link list at https://yrtree.me/@BibleAnalysis). Going forward I'd like to share any helpful knowledge or insights I can.
