Historically, Advent is not about waiting for Christmas. It’s about waiting and preparing for Christ’s second coming, and it is a penitential season similar to Lent, for when He returns, he will not be a meek and mild baby in a manger, but a King coming to judge the earth. My dad says if you do Advent right,…[Read more]

@loopylin

whoops! I saw this by accident! KP didn’t notify me. 😑

He blinked. Shrugged. Life was confusing. Why did people say things they didn’t mean? He moved behind the chair on wheels and grabbed the handles, carefully, he began to push it down the sidewalk. “Where are we going?”

@theducktator

Ugh, being sick is the worst. Everyone in my family likes to get sick one at a time so that by the time the last person is getting better the first person has moved on to something new…. 😑

Praying.

@whalekeeper

Haha! Love the last one!

@rae

I will!

(Oh dear.)

@linus-smallprint

Family friend, but yes. Dad knew him while he was in the military.

@linus-smallprint

Thanks! It was really fun to experiment with.

@grcr

They look great! That’s an impressive project. I hope it turns out well!

@whalekeeper

Have fun!

(When you return, I will pelt you with snowballs so you will have to share your writing…I didn’t use many last year…)

@linus-smallprint

Yep!

I suppose we could. I’m preoccupied today and tomorrow at least, but anyone can do it.

@rae @keilah-h

I will be on a week long vacation starting tomorrow. I am not sure how much of an internet connection there will be. But please continue when you feel up to it! If I do not reply within 24 hours, assume I’m out of reach.

On the bright side, it’s a quiet beach house and I’ll surely have time to write all day.

@linus-smallprint

Yup. Some people who attend my church fell into the Occult before they became Christians, and they blame it on Narnia.

Oh! Well. All the more to my point. There are book series that I, also, try not to reference in front of others too often because it makes them uncomfortable.

Heya, guys? Just want to point out the moderators were active over the past day or so. And I think I know what they were fixing. There’s a new “newest member.” Maybe they fixed the issue with making new accounts!

@linus-smallprint

Does your sister have an account now? If she doesn’t – potentially try requesting again?

@esther-c

I’m worried that I’m sending little messages that this sin really isn’t so bad or evil.

I really don’t think you have to worry about this unless the MC doesn’t face consequences.

Every MC lives with internalized beliefs, some right and some wrong, and if you’re telling the story from the MC’s perspective – they’re not exactly going…[Read more]

@koshka

That had better be utter sarcasm, XD

@koshka

Oh, okay then.

Those books are cool, but they also have a lot of wacky things theology-wise.

@koshka

I KNOW! When I was reading that I was like, “No way! This is what happened to –––” Except I don’t think Drew Carter’s dad died in Dessert Storm. And was he Special Forces?

@esther-c

Glad it was helpful. I have a possible idea for something that you could try for option three.

We knew a kid who was trying to go straight. His dad was Special Forces and died in Dessert Storm. His dad’s best friend was kind of a mentor to him tho and was trying to fill in as a father figure. None of them were Christian’s at this…[Read more]

And a meme about my project for good measure. It’s too accurate to not make. XD

I thiiink this is just a me thing but I made it anyway.
