Anybody who knows the story about King Solomon and the two mothers? 

If not? Go read your bible… :)

I’ve always been amazed how King Solomon demonstrated his wisdom through this situation..and I am craving for more wisdom every friday.. :)

Anyway, this message was delivered last January 9, 2009 and here’s the summary
