Many, many thanks to Jessica from A Shower of Roses, who directed her readers to this movie: Come What May. Done by homeschooled students, it tells the story of a student at Patrick Henry College who is torn between taking the easy way out or doing the right thing. I stayed up until 2:00 am … [Read more…]
Over… and over… and over… and over… and, well, you get the point. I challenge you to listen to it — even just once — and then see if you’re not singing it to yourself for the rest of the day! Now, for the record, they’ve only seen the OLD episodes. DH and I, however, … [Read more…]

I challenge you to watch this interview with Jill Stanek and not be moved. May Almighty God have mercy on our nation. h/t Are We There Yet?
I’m sure just about everyone has seen this story, but this is such a wonderful tribute to Thomas Vander Woude, the father of 7 sons who died while rescuing his youngest son.
