The Lord’s Prayer | Official Film Trailer

November 4, 2025 By Tamera Alexander

I love diving deeper into God's Word—studying it through its original lens of history, geography, and cultural background. Context is crucial to understanding the Bible. Understanding what it meant to the original recipients is essential to grasping its powerful meaning for us today. Over two thousand years ago, Jesus gave us the Lord's Prayer. And as Brad Gray of Walking the Text teaching … [Read more...]

Something Delicious

November 15, 2024 By Robin Lee Hatcher

On Monday, I finished writing my 94th book. To Capture a Mountain Man is the third book in The British Are Coming series, and it will release in February 2025. (To confuse things, my 93rd book doesn’t release until summer 2025.) To celebrate typing “The End,” I went to see “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever” on Tuesday. I laughed. I happy-cried. It is a delight from start to finish and should … [Read more...]

Let me share a bit about it, then I’ll share the trailer.  Going on ten … [Read more...]

Doors, doors, and more doors

When you travel, do you have a specific item you take pictures of? For me? It's doors. I love doors. Especially doors in Europe. They seem to have so much more character that the "routine" American entry way. Here are some pictures from a recent trip Joe and I took. And the last pic holds a teeny weeny clue as to what part of the world we were in. :) See if you can … [Read more...]

New Seasons of British TV

May 15, 2024 By D'Ann Mateer

We are huge fans of British TV, mostly for the depth of character in the storytelling. And the accents. And the scenery.  Anyway, a whole slew of our shows—almost all of them murder mysteries (which at this moment are not the intense police drama kind) are in new seasons so I thought I’d share.  Note: we have both BritBox and AcornTV streaming services. Some of these shows might be … [Read more...]
