Monday Light: Nature’s Pinafore

Beauty lies in the expression of the soul Grace, like Nature’s Pinafore, hangs in the balance Elemental, it does not seek its own counsel A sad, older tune weaves it to fruition Tears shimmer in a stardust rain. – Jared White Visit photo gallery

God is the Ultimate Travel Agent 3: Direction

Immanuel — God with us — is the Biblical revelation that in Christ we have a traveling companion on our journey Who is with us wherever we go. We had a good run with that aspect of the Christian faith in the last installment of this series, but this time, I would like to diverge [...]

Monday Light: Spring is in the Air

Two for one this time around!

I decided I’d do something more intelligent than list some questions in a blog post, so I’ve created a short survey you can fill out (very quick, shouldn’t take more than a couple of minutes) that will [...]

The lust for power is never satisfied
