What’s Wrong With Heaven

My son Josiah loves Kane Brown's music. Like with my other kids, I try to listen to music by artists they like and talk about it.

Seeing Life Through the Tears of Christ

Several years ago I attended a conference to hear a talk from an artist I admire. His name is Makoto Fujimura. He had just illustrated a commemorative edition of the New Testament. His impressionistic art is placed throughout the gospels. I was able to get a signed copy of an oversized edition at the event, which I treasure to this…...
