In our world, unspeakable acts of evil take place everyday.  There are those who endure pain and suffering such that we may never fully know (or comprehend).  This past weekend, I was honored to speak at First Baptist Church of Orange Park, Florida.  On Monday of last week, a 7 year-old little girl named Somer Thompson was walking home from school, when she was abducted and taken to an
