In the sixth month, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee, to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin's name was Mary. The angel went to her and said, "Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with…

    You might remember my posts about the summer replacement on CBS titled Reckless. It debuted around the same time as the Halle Berry vehicle Extant pictured above. The first season of the sci-fi/cyborg Extant had a few fans but the consensus declared it "boring" (and it was), but CBS chose to renew it over Reckless (which…

                                      Christmas shopping for love stories? There you have them. If you'd like a paperback Breath of Life, contact me at the email on this page and it's yours for $10 which will include shipping and handling (USA only). It's overpriced at Amazon – I have nothing to do with that. This will…

    My favorite version of this astounding song. A wonderful way to welcome the Christmas season. Love this. So much.   God, thank you for selecting the perfect young woman who chose obedience to you above all else and the earthly father who chose obedience when everything pointed against it. You always know. Jesus,…

  Still in rustic mode. This one fascinates me. With the high windows it almost feels like it's below ground level. I do love the rock chimney fan. Double oven.

And until that time Told You So read like a sweet little romance with a southern twang displaced in New…

  "And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the      Most High;  for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way      for him; to give his people the knowledge of salvation      through the forgiveness of their sins, because of the tender mercy of our God,      by…

    I'm a sap for these commercials. I love them, but they make me cry. Can't help it. Love the Christmas spirit. Well done, Wells Fargo.   Lord, we honor you for bringing us Christmas. Thank you is never enough. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.

  Interesting look. Rugged. With that unfinished wood appearance. What do you think? Strange that when I glance at it, the two words that come to mind are "Steam punk". I know: weird.   Such an amazing variety of creativity, Lord. Thank you for it all. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.  

  There are those times in life when confusion reigns – along with all the other emotions pictured above. And sometimes it seems as though those times are there to stay. During those times it's very difficult to be upbeat, have faith, or understand why all of it is necessary. When these times linger, some of…
