See the Movie/Read the Book

I Am Number Four (Lorien Legacies, #1)I Am Number Four by Pittacus Lore

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Adrenaline-filled thrill ride that keeps the pages turning, but is a definite skim. This book might have been a 1/4 inch deep, if that. But a rocking good time, pardner. If they stay true to the book, the movie will be phenomenal!

Pagan Christianity: Exposing the Roots of Our Church PracticesPagan Christianity: Exposing the Roots of Our Church Practices by Frank Viola

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


So, I learned some stuff, and it gave me much to think about.
Did you know, the New Testament epistles are basically organized by the length of the letters? Why didn't I know that? Fascinating. I'm going to read them in their probable chronological order, just for kicks (and scope).

Galatians
1 Thessalonians
2 Thessalonians
1 Corinthians
2 Corinthians
Romans
Colossians
Philemon
Ephesians
Philippians
1 Timothy
Titus
2 Timothy

I would be suspect of anyone who totally agreed with every single thing in this book, and equally so of anyone who was 100% opposed. If I can learn something from it, a book can't be worthless, but as it is written by men it will not speak God's ideals perfectly.

Just in Time for Valentine's Day

I made this my desktop background.

Yes, I chopped the wood and built the fire myself.
Anything in life worth having is worth working for.

This one's for the kitchen.
I can't sing, but luckily I can cook.
Feel free to borrow, steal, post, print, etc...
May you love each other not in words or tongue, but in actions and in truth.
