Why I won't let my kids watch Tangled

I\'m a super romantic guy. Not like in the flower-buying, sonnet spouting sort of way. More in the, \"I have unrealistic expectations about everything\" sort of way. It\'s the disease of the naive..

  • When being lost clouds your way

    I think many of us have been here. Picture this: you\'ve been a Christian for quite some time now. Overall it\'s been a rewarding experience. You\'ve known divine love.
