It was Blast! and it was fantastic. That said, the show is a cacophony of color and creativity a musical montage offering nearly two hours of stimuli.

More often than not, we end up more committed to what we want the Bible to say than what it actually says.

This is wine," Ghoolion said solemnly. "Wine is drinkable sunlight. It's the most glorious summer's day imaginable, captured in a bottle.

It could be hard to choose the time outside over the time within.

I know now that they were the clamor of a new self struggling to be born.

Because Gram's right, there's not one truth ever, just a bunch of stories, all going on at once, in our heads, in our hearts, all getting in the way of each other.

That's it!" to the dizzying cacophony of soloing instruments trying to make music together. That is it.
