Foxcroft: Lost in the Fog
“Let me get this straight—you escaped the Militia by climbing off your roof to a plane, ended up having to drop your littlest sister some fifteen, twenty feet, had your other sister jump out when the going got rough, and then you survived impact?” “Something like that. You mind telling me your name? I told…

The Winds of Change
So, this post is somewhat two-fold in purpose! Firstly, you may or may not have noticed an absence on my part during the last couple months; in part due to a slightly heavier schedule this year. Sometimes, other things just take priority, and I hope you understand! Three (or more) things you can look for…

Foxcroft Season One: Pilot (Part 2 of 2)
The airplane nosedived, Kit, Beren, and Tahlia trapped inside. As if there was momentarily no gravity at all, Kit floated in the air for a brief second before slamming into the cold floor. “We have to jump! It’s the only way we’ll survive the fall,” Tahlia screamed into their ears. “Are you insane? We’re over…

Bring the Fire
Without a spark… waiting for a fire is futile. There has to be a moment–a single moment–when the fire ignites. That moment changes everything. I’ve realized that–without the blessing of the Lord, a fire is impossible. You may have noticed recently that I haven’t been as active lately, and I’m currently planning on writing closer…

Foundations (Part 2 of 2)
Every single thing that happens sends echoes through time. Some bounce back, others are amplified, and some are diffracted. Which kind are the echoes we send? In John 7:24-27, Jesus tells a story of the wise man who built his house on the rock and the foolish man who built his house upon the sand.…

Foundations (Part 1 of 2)
In the winter, my siblings and I will often make a snowman or two every once in a while. And while we’re not experts, we have learned a few things. We start at the bottom, building three rounds balls of snow, each successively small than the last. By doing this, we ensure that it’s not…

Captain America: Civil War/Avengers: Infinity War
“We try to save as many people as we can. Sometimes that doesn’t mean everybody, but you don’t give up.” The movie Captain America: Civil War was released in theaters in May of 2016. And while it didn’t quite conclude Cap’s story, it’s become one of my favorite movies because of both the amazing plot…
