I Believe In Love

by Marc Gunn, April 18, 2005 I remember watching The Mission back in high school. It was one of the most-powerful movies to me as Jeremy Irons’ character explores sacrificial, Godly love. I would hope no one would have to endure such challenges, yet many do with less bloodshed. For the followers of Christ, Love […]

Celtic Christian in a Pagan World

It’s tough being a Christian in a pagan world. I know this might sound weird to most Pagans living in a America where the Religious Right runs the government. But that’s really not the world I live in. I live in Austin, Texas. The liberal capitol of Texas. The one place county in Texas that […]

Goddess Dresses, Magic Gardens and Love of Excalibur

Another delightful weekend at faire. The crowds were a bit smaller, but it was much more relaxing and enjoyable for me as I returned to an old tradition–playing for vendors. Our first few years at faire, Andrew and I played almost non-stop. The trick though was to play without cutting into someone else’s show schedule. […]

Travel to Italy for just $1.62 per Day

I have a wee secret. Every day, for about five minutes, I travel to Italy. I don’t even need to find a low fare guarantee through Orbitz or another online travel agency. Why bother when MY trip only costs $1.62 per day. Okay, I admit it. My Italy trip is not to the actual country. […]

Giving Thanks for The Leprechaun, Music, and More

“I just wanted to tell you I love your music, and it has even tappered down to two of my children ages 9 and 11. One who is terminally ill, and the other who is autistic. Their favorite song you do is called The Leprechaun. Thank you for making such beautifully music that has enriched […]
