Jesus, Sun of Justice
We all long for justice. Children are born with this innate desire—they are obsessed with fairness until their parents tell them enough times that the world is not fair. Well, it is a fallen world so that is unfortunately true. But I have never said this to my own...
What I Read in November
Posting late this month because 1) Thanksgiving and 2) End of semester for my kids and 3) Christmas preparations, but even though I am too late for my regular linkup, I wanted to keep up my monthly update–especially as I hit my goal for the month! The Raven in...
When the Bad Guys Win
Today’s First Reading is really satisfying, isn’t it? Imagine King Antiochus, secure in the power of his army, head full of dreams of silver and gold. He is so certain of victory that when things don’t go his way, he is dismayed. In today’s slang, we might say he is...
What I Read in October

What I Read in July
Well, this was the first month I failed to meet my five book reading goal. I read parts of several other books that will show up in my August post, but only completed four. It is getting harder and harder to preserve my dedicated reading time, and with school...
What I Read in June
I did not read as much in June, but I did meet my goal. Here’s the breakdown: Call Down the Hawk is the first of a trilogy that follows the Raven Boys series, which I loved. My adult daughter loves young adult fantasy and I am grateful for the ones she...
