The Quote Is a Lie!
This post may contain affiliated links. I love C.S. Lewis. Lurve him. And I quote him incessantly — and misquote him apparently. This is one I’ve always believed was accurate.

Unbelievable
By now, most people have heard that the fantastic Rolling Stone article on a horrific gang rape was, well, fantastic. As in made up, apparently whole cloth.

Dear people, stop making stuff up and stop stealing stories. Because the real story is more interesting. The real story is […]

Our pastor is preaching through the book of I Timothy. Today, he spoke on the overriding theme of preaching and protecting sound doctrine from I Tim. 1: 3-11.
