Nativity come out tomorrow and ...

It's banned already. - Having said that it's still going to be in mainline movie theatres so people will still get to see this awesome movie - that highlights the real meaning behind CHRISTmas. In fact don't they say bad publicity is as good as good publicity. I pray that God will use this to get people on their path either to Him or back to Him. Amen ?

Hinduism no barrier to job as priest in Church of England


I came across this incredible news story - what is he thinking ? What is he believing ? - What is his Bishop thinking ? What is his Bishop believing ? I really understand why some Christians are re-naming themselves Christ Followers. This story really helps you understand their thinking.

Insanity

The definition of insanity is doing the same things over and over but expecting different results. Are we insane in the church ?

Ted Haggard situation

He's done the right thing
More wisdom from Mark Batterson - balance grace and truth as Jesus did (John 1:14). We're challenged to know to which side we sway and move to be more balanced. We might be balanced in our own eyes but we need a diiferent perspsctive to gauge properly where we're at. And for taht we need people that we can trust and conifde in.
I want accountability - I pray that I'll continue to accept and act on it with the Lord 's help.

Big God

How big is our God ? Mark Batterson asks us. And gives us a great quote from A.W.Tozer

I think A.W. Tozer said it best: "A low view of God is the cause of a hundred lesser evils." But a person with a "high view" of God "is relieved of ten thousand temporal problems."

It reminds me of when we were kids - I remember saying my Dad is bigger than yours or some such like - my Dad can lift a cow and then the other kids would say my Dad can lift 3 cows - well - mine can lift 6 cows and so on
It's great that we can boast about our human dads and have confidence because they are bigger than us. But how much more can we have confidence with our heavenly father who made eveything else - nobody can be bigger than Him.
