“Christianity, if false, is of no importance, and if true, of infinite importance. The only thing it cannot be is moderately important.” ― C.S. Lewis. I was once told by a non-Christian friend to ‘convince’ him that God was real. I must admit, I was excited by the opportunity, as I was certain that I knew […]

The journey of life can sometimes be a funny thing. There are times when the journey is smooth. So smooth in fact that it feels as though you are gliding through it.
