The Fellowship of the Ring is the Most Important Movie of My Lifetime
Samuel James explains what The Fellowship of the Ring meant to him and to an entire generation.
The Night Song (feat. Colin Buchanan)
I love this new song from CityAlight. “In the darkness God will keep me / He will stay and never sleep / In the darkness God is brighter / Though the night is long and deep.”
Consider the Birds
This is a hobby I wanted to get into and maybe someday still will. “Being a birdwatcher is actually a lot like being a Christian. You get the same reactions from people: ‘Oh okay, well, whatever makes you happy …’ and they think you just hang out with old people all the time.”
Omnirationality and Divine Providence
This is just about a must-read.
How ‘Progressive’ Can a Christian Get?
