the Music within us…
This last week I was watching The Jesus Music, a documentary chronicling the rise of Christian music. It traces its inception from the 1970s hippie movements, through the glory days of rock and roll in the 1980s, to this day. Famous faces, names and songs brought back memories, invoking nostalgia from my youth into my…

Faith in Love….
Is faith just something that a christian has? Is faith something we all struggle with a little? Or is it just the “ignorant masses” that need faith as a crutch? I have just started my second year of university. It’s a fascinating place to be, and there is so much to learn. Our world is…

Woman of Today (part 3)
No wonder we try to get our power through our appearance, because that is the only place we feel like we have any control. We can “control” men and their appetites when we look like an ageless porn star. After all, that is what we are conditioned to believe our worth is, and that is…

Woman of Today (part 2)
Over the last 50+ years we have been indoctrinated by pornography. Playboy, Penthouse, Hustler…etc…if you’re old enough you might remember those “hidden” magazines that one had to make a real effort to buy and look through; well they just look tame compared to what we have accessible now. If anything, our normal evening line up…
