    Stardew Valley

    Hello Stardew Valley is probably one of the most relaxing games out there and doesn't have all the gory violence that many games nowadays have. It's pixelated as well giving it a friendly sort of look. Healthy game for adults and children. You create a farm, mine, fish, and ultimately have fun...

    Christ's Skin Color and Racism

    Why do I tend to see a lot of Christians discussing Christ's skin color? I mean, is it really that important to know? Wouldn't Jesus prefer we focus on what he spoke instead of his skin color and debating whether he was white, brown or black? A skin color is a skin color. I don't see why humans...
