‘How to Make a Killing’ violently addresses key themes of money, greed and the soul
By Gabriel Payne
What would you do for twenty-eight billion dollars? Or rather, what wouldn’t you do? Is there any length that is too far to go for a life-altering, generationally impacting amount of money? Some people would lie to achieve such wealth. Some would cheat. Some would steal. Some would even kill seven of their distant family members.
At least, Becket Redfellow would. Ever since he was a child, Becket was told of the famed Redfellow family fortune that he was in line ...

By Megan Deets
Throughout his life, Ethan Foster, a Master of Divinity (mDiv) student at Cedarville University, has felt a call to take the gospel to the people who have never heard it.
