Rolling Stone's 472nd greatest album of all time
A brilliant album, with a wide range of songs. From the anthemic Faith to the soft pop of Father Figure to the filthy sex songs. A great listen overall and a demonstration of his diversity.

Breathtaking Scenery
Fantastic Drama/Thriller!
Keeping Faith is a superb TV show with fantastic plots and wonderful actors. Each weeks' episode leaves you begging for the next one. Eve Myles, who plays Faith, was outstanding and you could really relate to her. I also particularly enjoyed the scenes including Hannah Daniel as Cerys Jones (junior associate at the family's law firm, Howells) who was very good. The show is set in Wales where the scenery manages to be both bleak but breathtaking, at the same time.

I loved watching Keeping Faith as it was gripping and kept me hooked all the way through. So many questions unanswered and so much more drama to come. Fantastic!

The closing song of Keeping Faith's first episode which melts me every time was written and sung by Grammy award-winning songwriter Amy Wadge.

This is a beautiful, wonderful drama and I'm ecstatic to hear that there will be a Series 2.
  
A unique look into the life of the Amish.
 The lifestyle and simplicity of the Amish has gained vast popularity in recent years and so many books are being written about it. Its getting kinda repetitive. This one is a very unique look at the trouble the Amish face when they are given the choice of becoming english or marrying and staying in the Amish Faith. This is the first Amish book I have read that the author does not completely agree with all the rules and orders of the Amish. It caused me to really think about the Amish faith and if I personally agreed with the way the Amish faith is portrayed.
  I would highly recommend this book if for no other reason than that the author really makes you think.
I volunteered to read this book in return for my honest feedback, the opinions expressed within are my own.

Powerful movie
Based on a true story, this movie tells the story of Bethany Hamilton, a surfer who lost her arm to a shark and the battle she endures to come back after. A very inspiring movie on the power of faith, family, and courage.

Book Favorite

"I love Westerns and always wanted to make this into a movie. I still do! It's the one that got away. A tight, taut, tense standoff, and almost impossible to put down once you start reading, dealing with differing beliefs in nature, faith, spirituality."

A Good Man is Hard to Find and Other Stories

Book Favorite

"The Grandmama of southern gothic literature, O'Connor unabashedly tackles faith and faithlessness head on. Grotesque, funny and oftentimes creepy, these stories draw a picture of a society on the brink of moral bankruptcy. I find them more relevant today than ever....even on a desert island."

The Reaping (2007)
The Reaping (2007)
2007 | Horror, Mystery
Spooky Scary Reaps
The Reaping- is a underrated horror jem, that not alot of people talk about.

The plot: Katherine Morrissey (Hilary Swank), a former Christian missionary, lost her faith after the tragic deaths of her family. Now she applies her expertise to debunking religious phenomena. When a series of biblical plagues overrun a small town, Katherine arrives to prove that a supernatural force is not behind the occurrences, but soon finds that science cannot explain what is happening. Instead, she must regain her faith to combat the evil that waits in a Louisiana swamp.

It might be bad movie from other critics, but to me its a underrated horror jem.

Right now I'm enjoying story of seasons: trio of towns and have restarted etrian odyssey untold: millennium girl for 3ds. I checked out the movie A question of faith from the library and loved it. I'm just starting Magic Triumphs by Ilona Andrews, one of my favorite authors.

"Sisters of Castle Leod is the emotionally charged story of two sisters torn apart by jealousy and superstition, and the impossible leap of faith that could finally bring them together."
