Brown's poetic concerns are both broad and intimate, and at their very core a distillation of the incredibly human: What is safety? Who is this nation? Where does freedom truly lie? Brown makes mythical pastorals to question the terrors to which we've become accustomed, and to celebrate how we survive.

Step Into The Story of Easter… As believers in Christ, we celebrate two major events annually on the church calendar: Christmas and Easter. Christmas observances are tied closely to home and church, with families having their own traditions at home as well as attending Christmas services together. However, Easter is usually only celebrated in a church service. Many families have an Easter meal together, but in our busy and fractured culture, that may not happen. Passover for Christians provides a designated time for families and friends to share a meal together and focus on the final week...

In recent years, something curious is happening in the church scene. Some Evangelicals are drawn to the Eastern Orthodox Church (or to Roman Catholicism). The ancient churches offer an alternative to liberal mainline Protestant churches and theologically compromised charismatic and Evangelical churches. They reject the LGBTQ+ agenda, promote protective masculinity, and stand for pro-life issues. While many Christians would still affirm these values, what else is involved in the trade-off? What about the authority of scripture or tradition? Is faith in Christ enough for salvation, or must ...
