died on the upside-down cross in the middle of Tamworth’s square. After a week of the same entertainment, the unchanging agonized gasps and groans, the atheling had found himself to be used to the once stimulating sight.

The Lord has spent the last 4 years tearing me down. I have been alone with him during this time, and now this is all I want. I can anticipate more tearing down, if Peter is the gold standard. (excuse the play on words- “gold” again) I look to the near future with sobriety. ...
As it happened, however, Mr. Martel’s David and Goliath scenario got flipped upside down worse than Pi and Richard Parker during the movie’s spectacular storm scenes. Mr. Martel did bring to mind Biblical David, but it was the one portrayed by Richard Gere in the universally panned eponym...

That day my world was turned upside down. Though my label of ‘gay’ had started to be dismantled in a Bangkok airport, I was still holding on to the idea that gay people are just damaged by sin. I told my son that evening he was mistaken, that he was straight. I took him rock ...
