The Value of One

…there’s a Superman. During the last few days, I’ve been thinking more about exactly what one “notices” in a person. Like when a girl would notice (or be attracted to) a young man, not because of his character, but because of the way he looks. When girls are younger, they get this romantic ideal in [...]

I found this fun tag of sorts on Ribbons of Light, a fun blog I found recently written by a fellow costume-drama fanatic. The “rules” are to list your top ten favorite heroes from “classic” flims (i.e., films based on classic books). This was hard because some of my favorite heroes (e.g., the man in [...]

This Sunday at Providence Independent Baptist Church, the girls were able to sing a special with Pastor Mowery’s girls. It was really sweet and they did a great job!

On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross, the emblem of suffering and shame; and I love that old cross where the dearest and best for a world of lost sinners was slain.   O that old rugged cross, so despised by the world, has a wondrous attraction for me; for the dear [...]

“I am afraid that the schools will prove the very gates of hell, unless they diligently labor in explaining the Holy Scriptures and engraving them in the heart of the youth.” –Martin Luther
