In what is mostly likely an effort to win back subscribers lost after streaming the movie “Cuties” (a movie sexualizing young girls) on their site, Netflix released a Christian musical, “A Week Away.” The mixture of original songs and Christian favorites (like “Dive” by Steven Curtis Chapman and “...

I initially decided I wouldn’t talk about “that flag,” but a Letter to the Editor in last week’s issue inspired me to share a perspective that isn’t political or regarding whether or not it is breaking an ordinance. As someone who lives near the flag, I see it daily.  While I’ve heard the cars...

I love a good deal. I’m that person who will clip coupons, sign up for promotional emails to get a free item for my birthday, wait for free shipping with my favorite shops online, and mark my calendar for end-of-season/clearance sales; don’t even get me started on the thrill of the hunt during...

I don’t know exactly when this became more consistently woven into rhetoric, but within the past year, I’ve been hearing two words that are incredibly troubling: “my truth.” Here are some examples of when one would hear this: • Two people are arguing, and Person A accuses Person B of being a bully...
