I absolutely love this podcast. Yes, some people might find it offensive, but...honestly, I think it's kind of their goal, to get people talking about things that most Christians usually find taboo, and maybe change your mind once in a while. I think it's awesome what these guys are doing, and love what they stand for, even if I don't always agree with them.

Notable past guest speakers include Jamie Tworkowski (founder of the nonprofit To Write Love On Her Arms), Lecrae, David Crowder, Stephen Christian (Anberlin), and Jon Foreman (Switchfoot).

Book Rating

I re-read this book again - Read in October, again in February - it was still as good as it was then. Though I physically read a copy this time instead of listening to the audio - and I again still thought Blue was someone else the whole book, same lines as Simon in the end - oh how cute cute cute! I cant wait for this movie!!!!!!

I adored this book. I listened to the audio and I loved it! The whole story was great, it evidences high school completely I think. How afraid people are, how afraid they shouldnt be. How rude people are. I think Becky's writing is beautiful and flows amazingly. I can't wait to read more of her books!

Watching history play out

How the country was founded on a small personal scale

What's great about watching history play out is feeling like you understand it better thru people and how they see and deal with it. This series does it right. Even if you don't like "Spy" movies, this is about the people and what choices they make or don't make, the things they do to further the history or follow the tide that pulls them. I also feel like it doesn't just focus on the big names we know like Washington, this focuses on the locals in a small section, but influences the greater part. I really enjoyed the first three seasons and I'm now working on the 4th.

Hallucinations and Flashbacks

Jacob's Ladder- is a really great psychological supernatural horror thriller. Tim Robbins is excellent in this film.

The Plot: After returning home from the Vietnam War, veteran Jacob Singer (Tim Robbins) struggles to maintain his sanity. Plagued by hallucinations and flashbacks, Singer rapidly falls apart as the world and people around him morph and twist into disturbing images. His girlfriend, Jezzie (Elizabeth Peña), and ex-wife, Sarah (Patricia Kalember), try to help, but to little avail. Even Singer's chiropractor friend, Louis (Danny Aiello), fails to reach him as he descends into madness.

Its also super underrated, not alot of people talk about this film or know about this film. Its a must watch psychological twisted supernatural horror film.

Great family friendly introductory game!

I really enjoy this game. This is a great game to introduce to people new to the tabletop gaming industry. Century golem edition is a rethemed version of Century Spice Road. Both games are played the exact same way. I prefer Century Golem Edition over Century Spice Road, for no other reason but looks. Century is a great set collection game with minimal "take that" mechanics that can turn people away from other that collecting games. Easy game to play, an easy game to learn, challenging enough for beginners, not so easy for heavier gamers to avoid playing with new gamers.
