    FIVE REASONS NOT TO GO SEE THE PASSION OF CHRIST

    I think the whole debate that has surfaced in this thread is just a good example of how some approaches work for some people, and others don't. I think alot of people will respond in an emotional way to this film, and I don't necessarily think that's bad. As long as it prompts them to find out...

    the oscars

    Yea for ROTK!! Finally! Personally, the first movie of the trilogy was my favorite (the last one was WAYYYYY too draining), but I'm glad PJ and everybody else in the cast and crew finally got the recognition they so very much deserved. And I was terribly bummed that Johnny Depp didn't win...

    Favorite Guilty Pleasure Movies

    Well, my favorite movies are the Lord of the Rings movies and Pirates of the Caribbean -- I would only consider them "guilty pleasures" because I watch them so often! Well ... okay, I confess, I do love "Muppet Treasure Island", too. (Tim Curry is a hysterical Long John Silver)

    FIVE REASONS NOT TO GO SEE THE PASSION OF CHRIST

    No. That's OUR job. As I said before, this is an awesome, unprecedented opportunity for us to talk to people with whom it might otherwise have been very difficult or who would have been very closed to "religious" discussion. Even if people haven't seen it, they're talking about it, and that...

    FIVE REASONS NOT TO GO SEE THE PASSION OF CHRIST

    Non-Christians may not "get" the film on their own, but that's where we Christians come in, and that's why this film should be a good evangelism tool. People will be talking about it, and we can explain the whole point of Christ's sacrifice to anyone who wants to know. Of course, we can do...

    FIVE REASONS NOT TO GO SEE THE PASSION OF CHRIST

    I won't be seeing the film -- but only because I don't think I can stand the graphic violence. I just can't handle stuff like that well. But that being said, I do hope thousands of other folks go see it. I think it is a fantastic opportunity to talk to non-Christians about what Christ did...

    Why would you want Children in this day and age?

    A little over eleven years ago, I decided I didn't want my husband and I to have children. Same arguments as Robert43, especially about how scary the world is and wondering how you could ever be sure they would be okay. Two weeks later I found out I was pregnant! God clearly had other...

    A Love Story

    That is an awesome story! Thank you so much for sharing it! I married an unbeliever nearly 13 years ago. He was an intellectual, not going for the "God stuff", more attracted to Eastern philosophy than anything else. We had a child. I insisted that our son be raised in a Christian...

    Scrap book

    I can't post an actual link yet, but take the spaces out of this and add a www at the beginning, and you'll get my suggestion: two peas in a bucket . com (all one word) They are great. Message boards, store, the whole thing. As for doing layouts with scriptures, you can look at...

    Yet another Texan here...

    Thanks, Darlene! I'm still a little behind the curve here, with these "blessings" and "reputations" ... but I guess I'll catch up! GraceDancer

    Yet another Texan here...

    Just popped in to say, "Hi!" I'm an *ahem* middle-aged native Texan, got a Norwegian hubby and the world's greatest son (he's 10, a "Texwegian" :D ). Been back in Texas for a couple of years now, after several years in exile in Arizona and Colorado (and even a few months in London). There's...
