Review: Psalm 23 & Veggie Town Voyage
Pin It I found the cover illustration of the new book Psalm 23 by Richard Jesse Watson to be intriguing. Not the image that I would have guessed for a children's book covering the peaceful Psalm 23.

Review: Adventure in Odyssey: The Official Guide
Pin It It's no secret that I love Adventures in Odyssey. I listen to episodes each afternoon while I update the ABCJLM website and write posts on this blog. Since my teenage years, I have enjoyed the stories of Whit, Connie, Eugene, and Barclay family. As embarrassing as it is, I don't think there is an episode that I haven't ...
