The music business has been and is undergoing crazy changes that is shaking up all the major and small players in the industry. The problem is not the evolution of a different way of manipulating and consuming media but the failure of the player to foresee and yield to these changes.
In studying entrepreneurship last semester, I came across the concept of…
Greg reached for the SCRABBLE Players Dictionary and began flipping its pages. He’d played this game against his old nemesis, Barry, plotting his strategy carefully. Playing his last tile a few minutes ago, Greg held a slim lead—347-341. The nearly three-and-a-half-hour epic battle had gone nearly the way he’d planned it. Barry had darted out to a quick…
How can I change the World that I see, unless I’m willing to begin with me? Sharing the Word via the use of Godly platitudes fails to work with the wrong heart’s attitude. As human, we’re all inherently flawed; we all need God’s grace and to not be judged by His law. Although the world is in a hurting mess, there's help available for these times of distress. We have within us the ability to find solutions for the battles of our…

Joe January’s story is anything but just a story, despite spanning two centuries. The denouement is less than happily ever after, and January at times comes across as a sort of comic book superhero. But in youth we often view ourselves as invincible, only later seeing the global repercussions of our actions. Yet given the chance to live life over again, how many would turn their back? Hence the meat of January’s story is largely about regret: how, through his own foolishness, he lost…
I have found lately
...that to my soul,
there has been grafted,
a new and hybrid sort of breed of wings,
with the power of an archangel,
and the sweetness of a cherub,
the power of Raphael,
and the sweetness of cupid fused into one.
I have found lately,

off the ground,
as the earth departs from my…
