In Christ's love and patience, EYAWTKAAS, after revealing why, corrects and instructs some of the “best” people on the planet (because Jesus has somewhat against them). EYAWTKAAS uncovers by far the largest and most hypocritical cover-up in the history of the Christianity. Far surpassing Sodom and Gomorrah for wickedness is proved and so is the fact that much of the light of the world is in darkness. Because of God's love for marriage/family, He is “pulling the covers.” Don't be afraid/embarrassed to go with the author to higher heights in your Savior as...

It is about rereading it."

This story is more than my story, it is another example of the saving grace of Jesus. It is a story of how He pursued a very lost and broken heart, yet one He ransomed on the cross so many years ago. It is a story that keeps telling, as He continues to teach me what walking and living with Him looks like since He has called me out of homosexuality and into His embrace. It is a story of a war that waged in a realm I could not see, but so deeply felt. Most importantly, it is a story of victory, a message of hope for anyone who may be fighting a similar battle.

More than ancient erotic love poetry, this celebration of the human relationship with Wisdom can be a companion for your own spiritual journey.

The Song of Songs is the Hebrew Bible's deeply erotic poem of love, sexual yearning and consummation. Holding it sacred yet troubled by its thinly veiled eroticism, Jews and Christians for millennia have read the Song of Songs as an allegory of God's love for Israel--the classic Jewish understanding--or Jesus's love for his Church--the classic Christian understanding. This fresh translation restores the Song's eroticism and...

Many people, both inside and outside the church, are concerned that an orthodox understanding of the Bible is threatening and even harmful to women. After all, the Bible has a number of passages regarding women that are deeply troubling and hard to read.
