Narnia: “Narnia represents everything that is most hateful about religion,” says a writer for The Guardian. I take this as a good sign. If the producers have been true to the story it should be offensive!

Christmas Megachurches across the US have cancelled their Christmas Day services (presumably due primarily to a lack of interest). Are your church doors open on Christmas morning?

Du Jour: Paul at kerux noemata discusses our culture’s increasing ability and desire to weed out the unwanted in the womb.

Review: I’m quite sure this is not what a producer wants to hear about his film: “It was so uncomfortable to watch this film, I felt like I was desperately holding back a bout of extreme diarrhea while having dinner with my girlfriend’s folks for the first time.”

    The Deepest Thirst of All

    The God who created us formed us in such a way that we are not meant to exist apart from him. To live apart from God is the spiritual equivalent of trying to live without food and water. It will lead only to weakness, pain, and death.
