VIC JAMIESON BRUSSELS & BELGRAVE PREBYTERIAN CHURCHES The King James version of the Bible tells us in Proverbs 29:18: "Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he" and in Hosea 4:6: "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge... This is the time of year when many people are shaping their thoughts about the new year.

DeHaan, executive editor of daily devotional known as Daily Bread, by reading three and one-half chapters a day from Genesis to Revelations.
