A Really Good Summer Read: A Gentleman in Moscow (Novel) by Amor Towles

From the New York Times bestselling author of Rules of Civility—a transporting novel about a man who is ordered to spend the rest of his life inside a luxury hotel.

In 1922, Count Alexander Rostov is deemed an unrepentant aristocrat by a Bolshevik tribunal, and is sentenced to house arrest in the Metropol, a grand hotel across the street from the Kremlin. Rostov, an indomitable man of erudition and wit, has never worked a day in his life, and must now live in an attic room while some of the most tumultuous decades in Russian history are unfolding outside the hotel’s doors. Unexpectedly, his reduced circumstances provide him entry into a much larger world of emotional discovery.

An Awesome Worship Album from Hillsong United: People (Live)

I know that this is a repeat, but this album is that good! This is my favorite music these days. After seeing Hillsong United live last week, this album came alive in my soul. Every song is awesome, but when I listen to “Highlands” it just wrecks me. I think you’ll love it!


A Quote from Bill Belichick

“Mental Toughness is doing the right thing for the team when it’s not the best thing for you.”
