A Single Paragraph →
Is not this a simply stunning paragraph? The legion of consumptives lay upon the rooftops that night in bitter cold as the wind came down from the north like a runner in lacrosse, violent and…
Books & a Prophet Page →
I mentioned the book Taking Hold of God ten days back, and I’m sorry to say that I finished the books a few days ago. I really loved this book. It’s the Puritans: they just grab my heart…
