Travis review:

In today’s story a young student talks with two widows, a mother and a daughter, and by discussing the apostle Peter’s three denials of Christ, the older woman cries. The student walks away with the idea that “The past is linked with the present by an unbroken chain of events flowing one out of another.” I didn’t get much out of this story.
