A thoughtful and well-researched treatise of the Christmas movie genre, sprinkled with poignant moments and dappled with delightful Christmas movie insights. As always, Tyler Hummel thoroughly nails his topic. Unironically, this book is a perfect Chr ...more |

"This series is SOOO good, and this was the best yet. The story is superb. Dark, but in a way that’s both raw and necessary. The artwork is gorgeous, and there are several fun nods to the Atlanta area. Stephen’s character is deep, complex and relatabl"

"This was a really interesting and unique idea, I really wanted to know more… but I was left wanting more, and not in a great way. I wish it had been fleshed out more, but what was there was very good.

Lohli's story has been whirling around inside my mind for a few years, and so I'm happy that at last her story is free from me, and it'll be here for the world to read in a few weeks. It's coming soon, and you can get it first when you subscribe to m ...more |

“ — This world is full of trouble, umfundisi.
— Who knows it better?
— Yet you believe?
Kumalo looked at him under the light of the lamp. I believe, he said, but I have learned that it is a secret. Pain and suffering, they are a secret. Kindness and love, they are a secret. But I have learned that kindness and love can pay for pain and suffering. There is my wife, and you, my friend, and these people who welcomed me, and the child who is so eager to be with us here in Ndotsheni – so in my suffering I can believe.
— I have never thought that a Christian would be free of suffering, umfundisi. For our Lord suffered. And I come to believe that he suffered, not to save us from suffering, but to teach us how to bear suffering. For he knew that there is no life without suffering.
Kumalo looked at his friend with joy. You are a preacher, he said.”

“It can be crazy hard. To keep your faith, to keep going. It can be harder than I ever would have imagined. Sometimes things happen to you, really bad things that aren't fair, things that make you feel so terrible you're not even sure who you are anymore or whether you're right or wrong, good or bad. Sometimes you feel like there's no one to turn to, and you're all alone and so scared you can hardly move and so tired you just want to curl up in a ball and go to sleep forever. I guess that's kind of the way Alex felt that last night I saw him. And that's the way I felt now. But I guess I had one advantage over Alex. I guess in some way I'd been training for this time my whole life. I'd been training every day, even in simple things, little things. I trained to keep my mind sharp when I went to school. I trained in karate to keep my body and spirit strong. Even when I just went to church, or when I prayed by myself, it was a kind of training: I was training to remember that I was not alone. I was never alone.”
