Testimony Tuesday: Painting sunsets with God
By Bella Agnello

Eliana Wiseman is a storyteller at heart. Her whole life, stories captivated her – stories of mythical worlds and Authurian legends. Now a sophomore Broadcasting, Digital Media and Journalism major at Cedarville University, she is exploring new ways to draw out the Gospel through storyte...

‘The Penguin’ ends with perfected tragedy
By Ben Konuch
“I got the devil in my house, Rex. What am I supposed to do?”
If you ask any longtime DC fan who they think the most monstrous Batman villain is, you’d probably get the same answer: the Joker. Of course, plenty of Batman’s longtime enemies are nasty, but how do you make mobsters like Black Mask or the Penguin appear as sadistic or hateable as the iconic Clown Prince of Crime?
After finishing its final four episodes, I can now say that HBO’s “The Penguin” ...
‘An Almost Christmas Story’ was almost heartwarming
By Ashleigh Clark
I rarely enjoy modern Christmas movies. They usually have too much to say or are far too similar to the ones before them.
“An Almost Christmas Story” almost felt the same way.
Co-produced by Alfonso Cuaron, the short film tells the tale of a lost baby owl (Moon) and a little girl (Luna) trying to find their way home in unforgiving New York City.
Moon’s journey begins when he hides from a hawk in a giant pine tree. Unfortunately, this tree ...

The night consists of two flag football games between four dorms across campus, pitting Maddox against Printy and Lawlor against The Hill. This year, both contests proved to be defensive battles decided by some consequential big-time plays down the stretch.
Printy and Maddox’s matchup would be decided ...
A Fresh Surprise: Cedarville Dominates Ursuline in a match sweep
By Danielle Cherry
400 cheering fans filled the stadium on November 15 as Cedarville University women’s volleyball took on Ursuline. The lights dimmed, and the Jackets stepped forward as the starting lineup was called, ready to take on whatever the game brought them.
This game determined whether Cedarville would keep its position in the G-MAC tournament, given the Jackets' latest loss against Lake Erie; a win or a loss would change the entire G-MAC playoff positioning.

‘Arcane’ season two returns with a vengeance
By Janie Walenda
“Why would you let this voice set in your head? It is meant to destroy you.”
At its core, “Arcane” seems most interested in asking questions about change. How does change come about? Is it through the progress of science and innovation or through rebellion and revolution? Will innovation ever be able to remain pure-hearted, or will it always be corrupted by those searching for power? Is there a way to fight for the oppressed without violence, or as Silco said in ...
Rinnova’s birthday bash: Celebrating 20 years of coffee and community
By Bella Agnello
Cedarville’s lower SSC bustled with life on Thursday night as hundreds of students formed clumpy lines to try their luck at being a barista.
Immediately following the annual Christmas tree lighting ceremony, Rinnova threw a party in honor of its 20th birthday. Cold, tired students piled inside to enjoy freshly brewed, on-the-house coffee. In Panda Express, students lined up to get their free drip coffee, cookies and brownies. At Rinnova, students made their own hot or ...
Wise Testimony: Women of Impact kicks off its existence by hosting Voices of Wisdom

On November 7th, Women of Impact, a female-led initiative of Cedarville University, hosted its launching event in the Scharnberg auditorium at 7 p.m. Complete with fresh fruit, an assortment of delicious dips, scrunchies, and invaluable wisdom, the kickoff could not have gone better. Titled Voices of Wisdom, the panel highlighted the experience of other Christian women who had passed through difficult seasons of life and learned that trusting God is the only true peace in ...
