pinterest board: wordcrafterThis year I started reading some of The Doorway Papers, works by Christian anthropologist Arthur C. Custance. I finished the first book, Noah's Three Sons, in January; most of you probably remember that I did a follow-up post called Image Dei, inspired by some of the things Custance wrote.

As the four start rating indicates, I was charmed by this book. Abigail Hartman, the author, weaves a quest story with spiritual meaning, historical background, and lyrical writing. The plot moves quickly; I read this book in the span of a few day...

Methinks Shakespeare ought with his own time period to have stuck. "Cymbeline" isn't one of Shakespeare's better-known plays, and unfortunately it isn't really a hidden gem. Some parts are rushed while others drag, and the climax, where Cymbeline is be...more |

“God has arranged strange ways for some of us to find him. Sometimes He brings us on long physical journeys; sometimes He leaves us at home and makes the journey internal. Yours has been both. You have gone a long way and struggled a great deal, but I can see from your eyes that it was not for nothing.”

Actually, a lot of the books I have read are not on my Goodreads bookshelf. I didn't want to swamp my followers with book-dumps, so I haven't added every single book I've read to my collection (like C.S. Lewis, for example). But The Spanish Brothers is a great book, isn't it? It's one of my favorite Lamplighters.
Abigail, you were the one who convinced me to take the effort and time to read The Spanish Brothers with your strong urging, yet it's not on your bookshelf!(By the way, THANK YOU! :D)
