Some time ago I wrote a piece entitled Who Says What’s Christian Music? in which I briefly examined the sad fact that the actual content of music has little to nothing to do with what is actually classified as “Christian” and “secular” music.

Molly: I would love to really visit Canada someday. Do you live in Alberta maybe or near there?
Cat: I live about a day’s drive from Alberta, and there’s another province between here and there. Niagara Falls is twice as far the other direction. But we have real cowboys here in Manitoba too.

Molly Noble Bull with Cathi-Lyn Dyck
I went looking for stuff to drag home last week, and got into a conversation with author Molly Noble Bull. She just won a pretty cool award for her historical fiction book, Sanctuary. However, I’m from Canada, which prompted some questions in return.
Cat: Hi, Molly, and welcome to Humble O. Tell me the weirdest opinion you’ve heard out there lately. :~)
