Last night, I was up until 2 A.M. finishing reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I knew I wouldn’t be able to sleep until I got to the end of the book, so engaging was the tale, so if I were going to lie awake wondering how it ended, I might as well stay up and finish it.
***SPOILER ALERT***
If you haven’t finished the book, bookmark this and read it later. I’ll be discussing the end at length. If you haven’t read the books or only seen the movies, stop now and go read the books. They’re a great read. read more »

The Family Bible
In a lot of homes, I see a family Bible. In days past, this Bible contained records of marriages, births, and other important dates and events. Maybe yours still does.
But what condition is your family Bible in? Does it still crack a bit when you open it, even though it’s 100 years old? The idea of putting these important dates in the Bible is to keep them at your fingertips, because the Bible is to be the center of the family, but what if the Bible falls into disuse? What happens to the people whose names are written in the front pages of it? read more »
Was God at Virginia Tech?
When tragedies happen like the shooting at Virginia Tech University yesterday, many people often ask, “Where was God? Why did He allow this to happen?”
And ironically, He allowed this tragedy because of His love for us. That doesn’t make sense, does it? Allow me to explain. read more »
