My first book, Loving Someone Is Not Enough, is now available on Amazon.

A story about love, faith, heartbreak, and the painful truth that sometimes two people can care deeply for each other and still not find a way to stay together.

Loving Someone Is Not Enough is a story about deep love, real connection, and the painful truth that not every love story gets to stay.

In 1480 viel een Ottomaans leger (18.000 man, onder Gedik Ahmed Pasha) de Zuid-Italiaanse stad Otranto aan. Na 15 dagen beleg werd de stad ingenomen. De overlevende mannen (boven de 15) kregen een ultimatum: bekeren tot de islam of sterven. Ongeveer 800 weigerden. Ze werden naar de heuvel buiten de stad gevoerd (nu de Heuvel der Martelaren). Daar werden ze één voor één onthoofd.

De eerste was kleermaker Antonio Primaldo, die riep: “Nu is het tijd om voor onze zielen te vechten voor de Heer.”
De aartsbisschop werd voor het altaar van de kathedraal onthoofd.
Andere priesters werden doormidden gezaagd.
Vrouwen en kinderen werden als slaven verkocht of vermoord. Totaal: tienduizenden doden en duizenden in slavernij.
Dit was geen “normale” oorlog maar een religieus gemotiveerde slachting van weerloze christenen die weigerden hun geloof af te zweren.

Na de herovering in 1481 werden de lichamen (die maandenlang onbegraven op de heuvel hadden gelegen) verzameld en naar de kathedraal gebracht. In de Cappella dei Martiri staan vandaag de dag glazen vitrines vol met hun echte schedels – rij na rij, honderden stuks.

Een stukje geschiedenis dat zelden in de schoolboeken staat…

Anno 2026?
Kerken organiseren vrijwillig iftars wereldwijd..
Hebben die 800 martelaren hiervoor geleden?
Voor kerken die nu vrijwillig weggeven wat zij met hun bloed verdedigden?

@lady_valor_07 With women, it’s not about looks. It’s about connection, similar moral, values and compatibility. Marry your best friend. Compromise, because no one or one thing is perfect.

👉 So, the “Good Shepherd” claim (John 10:11, 14) is an indirect declaration of His divinity, because He was taking on the role reserved for Yahweh in the Old Testament

[Jason Alan @thejasonalan]

Jesus said “I am the good shepherd” in John 10:11 and again in John 10:14:

“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.” (John 10:11, ESV)
“I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me.” (John 10:14, ESV)

[Jason Alan @thejasonalan]

And the Jewish leaders understood this as a claim to divinity, which is why they picked up stones to stone Him (John 10:31-33).

[Jason Alan @thejasonalan]

So when Jesus claimed to be the Good Shepherd, He was identifying Himself with God’s role — indirectly but unmistakably. That’s why, later in John 10:30, He explicitly says:

“I and the Father are one.”

[Jason Alan @thejasonalan]

•“He is our God, and we are the people of his pasture, the sheep under his care.” (Psalm 95:7)
•“I myself will be the shepherd of my sheep.” (Ezekiel 34:15, also Ezekiel 34:23-24 where God promises to set up one shepherd over them — the Messiah).

[Jason Alan @thejasonalan]

This statement carried deep Old Testament weight, because in the Hebrew Scriptures God Himself is called the Shepherd of Israel:
•“The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.” (Psalm 23:1)
