What does it look like to walk out our Christian faith at work?
“You didn’t listen to your own advice!!” I silently yelled at the book I was reading and then sat silent for a second. Why was I yelling at this book?

I’ve been on Marvel Movie Month and have hit the big blockbusters for all the favorites: Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk, and Thor.
