Lord in your mercy, hear our prayer.

This is the opposite of the gospel of Jesus.

Everyone will be talking about Harry Potter and Downton, but early years Maggie Smith was so so good.

Marcellus Williams should’ve been spared not because he was innocent, but because he was human. Guilty people shouldn’t be executed either.

Imagine, if you will:

A "The Office"-esque, mockumentary style sit-com about a local community theatre trying to put on the fall musical.
