As a kid, losing your parents in a shop is probably one of the most terrifying moments in your whole life. You start looking around, trying to act calm and in control, while inwardly beginning to panic. As you start running out of aisles to look down, the calm and controlled walk begins to breakContinue reading “I Know Your Face”

That’s My Crown
After months of hard travel and near death experiences, a small group of travellers had at long last reached their destination. They were dirty, cold and tired. Yet for them, the reward of reaching the end of their journey was totally worth it. For the first time in many years, Thorin Oakenshield finally lays hisContinue reading “That’s My Crown”
Who Do You Want?
Humanity is notorious for making terrible choices. This reality has plagued us from the moment Eve chose to accept Satan’s lies over God’s counsel. While I am sure we could list many other times when mankind has made foolish choices, one choice stands out as a red stain, like a dirty smudge, on our existence.Continue reading “Who Do You Want?”
That’s My Dad
Shame is a strange thing. As a child, whenever I had done something I knew was wrong, shame would often engulf me. Confessing my sin and taking responsibility for my actions was always a fearful moment for me. Growing older the realisation that my actions also bring about disappointment or betrayal of trust makes thatContinue reading “That’s My Dad”

While many happy things occur in hospitals, such as the birth of a child, to me hospitals are too cold, too bright, too impersonal. They also have this particularContinue reading “Hospital Halls”
The Conviction of a King
The other day I was watching a video of a man who got kicked out of a grocery store for refusing to wear a face mask. According to one shopping attendant, the man refused to wear it since he believed it went against his right to freedom. Regardless of the fact that shoppers were requiredContinue reading “The Conviction of a King”
Big Hope for Short People
Being quite a short person myself, I have always felt some sympathy for Zacchaeus. Being short teaches you to ask for help and to figure out solutions to problems that most (tall) people don’t even have. It usually means missing most of what’s happening when big crowds are involved, because as soon as anyone aContinue reading “Big Hope for Short People”
Everybody Needs a Sam

At the end of the Return of the King, we see Sam pushing, pulling and finally carrying Frodo upContinue reading “Everybody Needs a Sam”
