Tonight is Twelfth Night. 'The Dead', the final story in James Joyce's 'Dubliners', published in 1916, takes place tonight. To my mind, 'The Dead' is the finest short story every written, reaching its unforgettable conclusion in the early hours of the feast of the Epiphany. In

I’m so glad for this review in World magazine. I love this: “Yet Now I Lay Me Down To Fight is not merely for people with cancer, or even for those in remission. The book is for anybody living in a mortal body and ‘for whom the bell tolls.’” wng.org/articles/a-poe…

wng.org/articles/a-poe… Katy Bowser Hutson's tiny book about cancer was my favorite to review this year. She writes, "I’m a beauty bearer / where you, cancer, copy furiously, / I fumblingly create. / You cannot uncreate me.”

Despite a devastating cancer diagnosis as a young mom, Katy Bowser Hutson's faith remained strong. She shares her story through poetry in her book Now I Lay Me Down To Fight. Read Chelsea Boes's review here: wng.org/articles/a-poe…

Thank you, Sarah Copeland, for this extraordinary cookbook. I came to it late, but I’m glad I got there! #asheville #vegetarian

I got some really bad marriage advice. If you're an evangelical woman, did you get it too? So thankful God gave me a husband who was more of a feminist than me. #Asheville #marriage #valentinesday2024

Next review for WORLD. I don’t understand how this can be a job, but I’m glad it’s mine.

Thanks to all the Lutherans keeping this life-changing doctrine in the conversation.

“Daddy, can you take the iPad away from me? I’m trying to take my eyes off it but I can’t.” Great review by Chelsea Boes wng.org/podcasts/the-p…

Agree. I just reviewed this book at WORLD. Haidt's conclusions and calls to action are *so practical.* This book also showed me how little I understand about teaching my kids to play alone.

This review of You Have a Calling (Brazos Press) at WORLD by Chelsea Boes made me a little teary and very grateful: wng.org/articles/findi…

Loved reviewing this book & happy it won one of our Book of the Year slots. Worth a read and then a reread.

Thanks for including my “Wuthering Heights” review in your weekly arts and entertainment roundup, WORLD Chelsea Boes!

We already existed before this world, because our creation was decided by God long before our actual creation.… Thanks to Him, we are very ancient in our origin, because ‘in the beginning was the Word.’ – Clement of Alexandria, Exhortation to the Greeks, I
