On Sunday, our Pastor asked us to consider fasting media on Wednesday. He was specifically talking about social media, unless he knows a bunch of people in our church struggling with reading too many books. I knew what he meant. I have done a media fast (t.v., social media) before so the concept was…
This just in- Kanya not a god. That being said, and probably understood before I said it, I am not judging Kanya. I just don’t want my teenagers getting their morality or theology from him. So, who are some artists parents and youth workers can recommend to their kids if they are into Hip…

Pastors should be looking at how to lead heir flock to…

I went and saw Iron Man 3 on Thursday of last week. I was deeply troubled that I had to see it at 9:00 p.m. instead of at midnight as I usually do. I was afraid something would be lost with a potentially uncommitted audience (Midnight = Committed). I was disappointed that this…
Yesterday I was listening to the Iron Man 3 soundtrack (songs inspired by the movie) and was saddened by the lack of inspiration on the songs. Looks like the bands did not see the movie. This is an action movie, but the songs don’t take me there. I am hoping that these songs are…
