Monday, February 28, 2011. The Man Behind St. Clare. St Clare seems to be a conundrum. Where does he really stand? Is he an advocate for slavery or abolition? Before I get ahead of myself, I suppose I should introduce St. Clare to you. But who is this man? This young aristocrat who dotes upon his daughter to the point of buying a slave without thinking of the cost? Truly Augustine St. Clare represents a paradox of a Southern slave-owner. Oh, St. Clare! How I pity you! Tuesday, February 15, 2011. Will con...

Monday, April 30, 2012. Austen vs. Bronte. If you ask a lady what her favorite book is, I'll be you'll get one of two answers:. Ironically, those who cherish. And the Austen lovers tend to loath the Bronte fanatics. What's the big deal? Of course, for the majority of my life I have been an avid Austenite (though I have yet to get through. To much a of girly novel for me). I loathed. On principle. Now I am faced with a perplexing problem: was I wrong to set the two novels at odds? Can I not love both?

Thursday, February 23, 2012. What would you consider to be the greatest good in your life? Take your time and think. The greatest good on this earth is God. Period. God's one goal for us is Himself" (. 62), but we usually replace God with all of his stuff. So often we live as if the greatest good in our lives were some attainable thing- financial security, academic success, marital bliss- but it's not. We love God out of duty and obligation, never thinking to return the crazy love He has for us. If "God ...

Tuesday, April 3, 2012. In my first reading of Jane Eyre. I wonder how Mrs. Reed could treat her niece this way? Why did no one care for this poor orphan girl who was cherished by her uncle? What kind of life would make a child of 9-10 consider a poorly run school a haven from a house filled with the finest things the world had to offer? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Thursday, March 31, 2011. Twain vs. Stowe. Uncle Tom’s Cabin. Mark Twain, on the other hand, depicts his bi-racial characters (who are “less-Black” than Eliza and George) with the broken, garbled language of the other slaves. Roxanne, though only one-sixteenth Black, speaks no differently than the slaves with a more solid heritage. So, which author is properly depicting the bi-racial slaves? While I thoroughly enjoyed. Uncle Tom’s Cabin. I must admit, my confidence lies with the crass and sarcastic Twain.

Wednesday, September 11, 2013. Tuesdays at the Castle. I unashamedly admit that I thoroughly enjoy reading juvenille fiction. My cousin, who also happens to be one of my students, fuels this passion by sliding books across my desk and into my teacher's bag (by rights, I do the same to her). The latest book to slither into my possession was. Tuesdays at the Castle. By Jessica Day George. Although the book may initially suggest the mysterious movings of Hogwarts from J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter.

Tuesday, December 27, 2011. Have you ever heard the saying, "Fools rush in where angels fear to tread"? Did you realize that this idiom is based on Scripture. No lie. Chan titles his first chapter in. Stop Praying." Are you confused? So was I, but that phrase makes a statement that entices the reader to well, read further. So I did. By the second sentence I realize that Chan was admonishing me to stop praying. As if that picture of God doesn't blow your mind, Chan reminds us how creative our God is. ...

Thursday, June 9, 2011. After reading five fictional books in four weeks, I was ready to take on something a little more serious and life changing. Since I first read Authentic Beauty. In the summer of 2007, I have been captivated and encouraged by Leslie Ludy. Her books motivate me to become more like Christ each day, making Him not just prominent, but preeminent in my life. My latest Ludy purchase, Sacred Singleness. Will take me more time to read. Why? I can minister to the Lord as a single person in ...
