Anyone who has ever been on a package tour with a group of strangers who soon become friends, and passed time swapping stories with them, would instantly identify with this timeless classic of English literature. The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer recounts twenty different stories recounted by a diverse group of pilgrims who gather at The Tabard Inn in Southwark, near London, before setting out for the shrine of Thomas Becket in Canterbury. The Host of the inn proposes that they entert ...

An American diplomat's family moves into an ancient stately mansion. They're warned by the owner that it is haunted by a most horrifying and gruesome spirit who had once cruelly murdered his own wife. The story progresses with creaking floor boards, mysterious passages, dark attics, clanking chains, and weird howling. Yet, the reader is totally unprepared for Oscar Wilde's brand of tongue in cheek humor as he takes all the ingredients of a traditional ghost story and turns it on its head, an ...

When it comes to apologies there are generally two types: a sincere apology and a hollow apology.

We can not control the era of history we are born into. We can not determine whether our time will be prosperous or challenging. Throughout history, people of faith have had to face invasion, captivity, drought, and depravation; while other people of faith have enjoyed times of prosperity, power, and comfort.

Is doubt the opposite of faith? In Scripture, people are both challenged and commended for their doubt.

“Come to Jesus and life will be easy and free of trouble!” Well, that’s what we might want to believe, but the truth is that faith in Jesus is not an escape from troubles.
