The other night, my best friend and I watched a show together from a thousand miles away. If I canât fly to D.C. and she canât come to Mississippi, at least we can fire up our laptops and enjoy Anne with an E  at the same time, texting our commenta...

Perhaps you will feel the same discomfort I felt overhearing saints of old speak of death. âHe who does not prepare for death is more than an ordinary fool. He is a madman,â began Charles Spurgeon. âAgreed,â said the good Doctor Martyn Lloyd-Jones...
