That’s Quotable! with FDR

That’s Quotable!

Monday Minute on February 15th

Another Monday, Another Snow Storm Hey all!  It’s Monday again (funny how Monday seems to come up every 7 days . . . ) and wouldn’t you believe it, we’ve had more snow.  It’s snowed around 9 times so far this winter and we are breaking records.  What kind of records you ask?  Temperature records.  The coldest days of the […]

The Lost and Found Bookshop – A Book Review

For the Want of a Book Barnes and Noble is a pretty nice place to be: the smell of fresh paper, the crack of an untouched spine, the hushed whispers of stories calling to their readers.  But take the comfortable atmosphere of B&N one step further.  Imagine now you are in a mom and pop bookstore – a crammed building […]

Personality and Nightmares – How Movies Affect Children Differently

The Mind Game Although it’s a classic children’s movie, Monsters Inc. is one my mom’s all-time favorite films.  That, along with A Bug’s Life, was played quite frequently at our house (if mom had to deal with constant repetition, it might as well be movies that she liked!)  However, although Monsters Inc. is quite enjoyable for me now, I vividly remember all […]

Meditating on the Word This week I’m going to share what I’m currently studying in my Bible!  Believers are called to share the gospel, but we are also called to share what we are learning in the word.  I won’t be going very deep here, but I’m giving an overview of one of my reading plans for the year. Hebrews […]
