Review: Help! Mom! There are Liberals Under My Bed!
This was an amusing look at two boys that open a lemonade stand so they can save money for a swingset. They’re good little boys and want to work for the swingset because their parents tell them it’ll make them better people. But then… horror! One liberal after another shows up, setting new rules for [...]

I recently finished “The Witness” by Dee Henderson, and enjoyed it a lot. I can’t tell you how much pleasure it was to read about characters that treat each other with respect, look out for each other unselfishly and sacrificially, then go to the Lord in prayer before making major decisions. In this book, the [...]

Have you gone through trying times, and wondered what God’s plan is or was? Are you going through them now? I have. There was a time about 9 years ago that I wondered what in the world God was trying to teach me. How in the heck could I possibly be in this mess? I [...]

What’s the Deal with Wicca by Steve Russ is a “deeper look into the dark side of today’s witchcraft.” The author gives a quite detailed picture of Wicca and why it appeals to teenagers expecially, and compares it to Christianity. If you are a teenager or know a teenage considering Wicca, knowing about this religion [...]

Many, many books to review. Until I get caught up, I’m not signing up for any more. I’ll be reviewing this book soon, so stay tuned. It deals with why Wicca is so tempting to teenagers (particularly to girls) and why it is so dangerous.

I’ve signed up to review several books from Mind & Media, and they all came in while I was away in Germany. Now I’m behind. Oops. The first book is “Think Before You Look” by Daniel Henderson. Subtitled “Avoiding the Consequences of Secret Temptation,” the book is a biblical examination of the problems pornography can [...]

William O. Levi The Bible or the Axe One man’s dramatic escape from persecution in the Sudan When I first read the title, I assumed this book would be about a man having to choose whether to renounce his faith or be killed. It was that, but it was more. William’s grandfather explained to him [...]

Paul Aldrich’s comedy CD called Mock ‘n’ Roll is light-hearted, family oriented fun. Accompanying himself on the guitar, Paul belts out familiar tunes with oddly twisted words, like the Rolling Stones I Can’t Get No Liposuction and Stairway to 7 Eleven. His voice lends itself to the fun with reasonable imitations of the famous groups. [...]

I enjoyed this book immensely; Jesus: An Intimate Portrait of the Man, His Land, and His People is written clearly and easily and provides an engaging story of the life of Jesus. The four gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John tell complimentary stories of Jesus, and one must read all four gospels to understand [...]
