Well, it's time to start thinking about Christmas already! What a joy it is to get in the Christmas mood and spirit and reflect on the sort of "beginning" to the story of our salvation (even though God had it planned all along...). As the days go by and I get older (how pathetic do I sound right now), I keep realizing how important it is[...]

Movies bring me such joy, or my favorites do, that is. I've already spent a lot of time talking about my favorite movies, though, such as what they say about life here. I was originally going to make a list of all my favorite inspirational movies, but then I got to be thinking, some of these I can't spiritualize even if I want to, and th[...]
I actually enjoy sad music. That's not all I listen to; I like a healthy variety because otherwise I could just sit in a corner listening to sad music and depress myself into oblivion, but I find music as a whole so therapeutic, and some honest, reassuring, relatable, yet hopeful lyrics are necessary for me. They help you feel less alone[...]
I am so excited for this post!!! It's been in my idea queue for awhile and I've been waiting to finally get to it. I know I've mentioned the group, known simply as Scripture Lullabies, on my blog before. They make exactly what they're named for—beautiful, melodic songs with lyrics that are Bible verses.

Gosh, it's been a long time since I shared some new book recommendations with all of you. I was going through my archives trying to find my last post sharing some of my favorite Christian and inspirational books, and I have not updated on that front in awhile. I've only wrote two posts on books I love: this one and this one. It is defini[...]
I'm always in awe of the power of music, and I'm always thanking God for Spotify that allows me to save and discover so many wonderful songs. I know I've said it before, but listening to music has helped me in so many ways as it does for many people, and that's the beauty of it, how everyone can have their own taste, style, and preferenc[...]
I love finding new songs to put on repeat, and listening to my favorite songs is my most favorite way to relax and unwind. Music can be so powerful and comforting. I’ve shared some of my favorite Christian and inspirational songs on the blog before, like in this post here, and today I thought I’d share ten songs I’ve been enjoy[...]
I love rewatching those movies that are my favorites, that no matter how many times you see them, they’re always entertaining and relaxing to watch again. I also have enjoyed going to movies with my family or watching them together; it’s fun bonding that way. There are movies that, despite not being distinctly Christian and maybe[...]
Last night *at the time this post was wrote* I had a blast with my family and some friends of my dad's attending the Nationals at Knoxville. I posted a lot of photos on my story (yes...I actually got back on Snapchat, just to have some sort of social media that can help me interact with people my age; my username is "sparklesbyablog").[...]
