Thursday November 10, 2005

Music: Marc Heinrich has uploaded an MP3 for his song Only Jesus. You can listen to that song and many others here.

Review: Susan Verstraete of Christian Communicators Worldwide has reviewed Captivating by John and Stasi Eldredge. “My conclusion is that Captivating is a slightly sanctified—though somewhat misleading—romance novel about God, with little biblical substance.”
