This coming Sunday we enter the season of Advent, a way to remember the first coming of Christ and to invite him to come once again into our lives even today. I’m giving away FREE copies of my book to any who are interested. Just DM me. 🕯️🌟

I’m not sure if we’ll ever be willing to re-examine our ideas about “hell.”

A fantastic podcast series I recently started listening to.

This newer podcast takes you back to the Satanic Panic that gripped America in the 1980s and ’90s. It explores how hysteria gripped parents and teens

Recently, I began this new book by African-American pastor & author Malcolm Foley. He offers an intriguing take – that race & racism are not primarily built upon hate & ignorance, but rather greed.

Check out the book.

This post is toxic. I don’t even have to address that married women can freely choose to work outside the home. Instead, all you have to do to debunk this is ask:

What do you do when a woman a) can’t physically bear children or b) is called to singleness? Are they then wounded?
