For The Divine Mercy: A Novena (Day 1, Good Friday)

Today, though, a friend shared a post from Gaiman’s website in which he acknowledges the debt he owes to three giants of literature, C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, and G.K. Chesterton, as well as to the treasures that can be unearthed in libraries. (more…) Read more

As the Same-Sex Marriage Question Heads to the SCOTUS…

Last updated on: April 1, 2015 at 9:12 am By Frank Weathers
