Have you noticed how hard it can be to give your testimony? Not everyone is afflicted with this. There are people who can tell anyone about being saved. I grew up in church, so I don’t have an “awesome” testimony like being saved from drugs or rescued from life on the streets. Trying to impress […]
At some point, all Christians face some kind of doubt, and many even get disillusioned. Being raring to go out and serve God, and hitting trouble can make you wonder if you are doing the right thing. Chris Walker hits a patch of trouble in Trevin Wax’s Clear Winter Nights, and then has to find […]

Have you ever been on hold for a while (you know, more than 2 minutes) and start getting upset? How dare whoever is on the other end think they have something/someone more important that I am. That isn’t what we tell ourselves, I hope. It is annoying to have to wait, but we don’t know […]
