Moses was able to speak with God…

Joshua trees are relatively fast growers for desert plants. Seedlings will grow at an average rate of 7.6 cm (3 inches) per year in their first ten years. Seedlings will then slow to 3.8 cm (1.5 inches) per year. Many desert plants need to grow to a height of about 1 meter to escape high ground temperatures and shading of adjacent plants, which will negatively affect their growth rate. Joshua trees can exceed 3 meters, which allows them to escape these pressures. DeFalco et al. believes this…

For me, belonging to a universal church was better than belonging to the local one. I did not want to commit to a place where sometimes people lead with their own desires. However, the way Harris…

Anything worth preserving had to be preserved in memory. In the essay, “The End of Remembering” by Joshua Foer, memory is an important issue. Different tools for remembering are discussed.
