About Joel Hall
Who is Joel Hall? I'm just me. I decided I should type out some of my foolishness while I'm still on this Earth. Hope you like it.Instructions for Navigating the Blog
To see older content you can either click on the months listed in the Archives or on the Category links. For instance, “Death, Where is Thy Sting?” can be viewed by clicking on the “Affidavit” category. To read my book, click on the “Revelations of a Glory Passing” category. For my poems, “Poetry” (duh). The Spiritual Living and Musings on the Bible overlap somewhat but provide convenient groupings of posts as well. Hope this helps. ShalomHouston, Texas
