Spring No 2, Friday 13th January 2023
At that time Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan River. He came to John and wanted John to baptise him. But John tried to stop him. John said, “Why do you come to me to be baptised? I should be baptised by you!”
Jesus answered, “Let it be this way for now. We should do all things that are right.” So John agreed to baptise Jesus.
Jesus was baptised and came up out of the water. Heaven opened, and he saw God’s Spirit coming down on him like a dove.
And a voice spoke from heaven. The voice said, “This is my Son and I love him. I am very pleased with him.”

A sprawling fantasy epic of wizards and warriors, World of Warcraft has raked in an estimated $9 billion plus in revenue, mainly through monthly subscription fees and in-game purchases. It’s this lucrative seam which has helped guarantee the game’s incredible lifespan: Warcraft continues to receive developer support and expansion packs almost 20 years after its initial release.
The game’s longevity is matched by its immersive – and often addictive – nature. There are frequent reports of players eating meals at their keyboard, guzzling energy drinks to prolong marathon gaming sessions late into the night. Our guide highlights this and other potential pitfalls that parents of young Warcraft fans should be aware of.
