The seconds become minutes, the minutes become hours, and the hours never seem to end. It’s always dark here; this is the rabbit hole. Once you start down, there’s no going back. Daylight never comes for those who never sleep, at least not the kind of daylight you might think. This is where the sinners go, the bad people your mommy always told you about. They travel this road, some hoping for a second chance, some forever damned.Yeah, that’s this place alright. No saints allowed.

A verse from the Old Testament came to Avery from the book of Lamentations. Remember my affliction and my wandering, the wormwood and the bitterness, surely my soul remembers and is bowed down within me. He looked out the door of the railcar. The sun was breaking through the morning clouds. The light of a new day was before him. He couldnt live in the past, but it was the past that made him what he was today; no longer the nave child, but a man hardened and bitter, very bitter he thought. ...

"The first song that was ever sung was sung by angels.”As a cup filled from the fountain of hope, I saw the beauty of an angel and felt the peace of heaven fill my soul while upon bended knee.The darkness that covers the world will be dispelled by the light that shines in a young boy’s heart. It will become the tempest of the storm in him, ever raging. He shall raise his hand against the enemies of light and destroy them. Making just the things that are unjust and setting f...

Morning, the time of day between sunrise and noon, or the time of day between midnight and sunrise, the dawn, or, mourning, an emotional response caused by the loss of a loved one, an empty feeling of helplessness that over comes the heart with sadness, a time of great reflection.This morning I sat alone and watched the sun rise, a new dawn approaches and the air is cool, it is my favorite time of day. But this morning is filled with a sense of emptiness that only the ...

"I have walked many paths in my life, been given direction along the way from friends and teachers. Shown different colors to use in my painting the walls of my life, yet for some reason as I look around, the colors seem a bit off. Not exactly what I had in mind when I picked them out."David Walls

The history of the moral argument for the existence of God is a fascinating tale. Like any good story, it is full of twists and unexpected turns, compelling conflicts, memorable and idiosyncratic characters, both central and ancillary players. The narrative is as labyrinthine and circuitous as it is linear, its point yet to be fully seen, and its ending yet to be written. What remains certain is the importance of telling it. The resources of history offer a refresher course, a teachable mo...

This book aims to reinvigorate discussions of moral arguments for God's existence. To open this debate, Baggett and Walls argue that God's love and moral goodness are perfect, without defect, necessary, and recognizable. After integrating insights from the literature of both moral apologetics and theistic ethics, they defend theistic ethics against a variety of objections and, in so doing, bolster the case for the moral argument for God's existence. It is the intention of the authors to se...

Written and directed by two white men and performed by an all-black cast, Nothing But a Man (Michael Roemer, 1964) tells the story of a drifter turned family man who struggles with the pressures of small-town life and the limitations placed on him and his community in the Deep South, an area long fraught with racism. Though unmistakably about race and civil rights, the film makes no direct reference to the civil rights movement. Despite this intentional absence, contemporary audiences were...

Naturalistic ethics is the reigning paradigm among contemporary ethicists; in God and Cosmos, David Baggett and Jerry L. Walls argue that this approach is seriously flawed. This book canvasses a broad array of secular and naturalistic ethical theories in an effort to test their adequacy in accounting for moral duties, intrinsic human value, moral knowledge, prospects for radical moral transformation, and the rationality of morality. In each case, the authors argue, although variou...
