A Body In The Banjo by Elaine Spires
A Walk Down Memory Lane A Body In The Banjo by Elaine Spires is a most entertaining retro crime saga that I thoroughly enjoyed and read in just one sitting. The story is set in Dagenham in 1958 and is focused on the small group of houses in the banjo. The houses have inter-connecting alleyways […]

The Last Leopard by Lauren St John
A Strange Type Of Heaven The Last Leopard by Lauren St John is a powerful contemporary children’s novel that I loved. It is perfect for those aged ten years and over. It is the fourth book in The White Giraffe series but can be read as a stand-alone. I recommend reading the books in numerical […]

Grammy Winners Give a Global Stage for the Gospel
The Grammys, or as we call them, the mainstream Dove Awards, were held over the weekend, and the Recording Academy once again crowned new favorites in Christian and Gospel music.

Colton Dixon: Cover Story (February 2026)
February. The month of love. Red hearts. Warm and fuzzies. A sharp contrast to the reality outside our studio walls, where a historic ice storm had brought Music City to a standstill. One that, as I am writing this, is visible out my window, where tens of thousands are currently without power. However, when the storm arrived, my family and our cover story feature were far from Nashville. We were at Universal Orlando’s Rock the Universe, where Colton Dixon was performing to thousands of sweaty worshipers at one of the premier travel destinations in the country. As we met up a few days later in the frozen tundra of Tennessee,…
