    Modern Christian Music Has DARK Secrets Nobody is Seeing...

    I occasionally turn on our local “Contemporary Christian music” station in my car and I hear something that I could easily mistake for modern country music or pop (which I dislike) both in lyrics and beat. The more conservative Christian radio station rarely plays music, so I turn on the...

    Out of tune with church music

    A former (retired) pastor stated: Much of modern “Christian“ music focuses on what God can do for you whereas traditional hymns focused on what God already did for us with his only begotten Son on the cross. I tend to agree. I actually find more of the glory of God in traditional classical...

    No snow here in N. WI and probably none for Christmas. This is a first for us in 36 years living up here!

    Christmas Movies

    Probably watch “It’s a Wonderful Life” again. I have watched it over 20 times and I don’t think I will ever tire of it.

    Should a Christian celebrate christmas or easter?

    Going to celebrate Christmas at a nursing home in a few weeks with some folks from our church. Will bring them small gifts, play and sing some Christian Christmas carols and music, and do a devotional concerning the birth of Christ. I don't think there is anything pagan about what we will be...

    I think you might find his son Gordon to be a bit more to your liking.

    700 Club Fans?

    I watch this show almost daily. I very much like the testimonies from people that prayed to God in times of great need. Also, their news is a great supplement to other news sources. Their Operation Blessing is a great ministry as well. Not so sure about their name-it-claim-it time of healing...

    I agree that Christmas is a great opportunity to share our faith. And I concur that we should celebrate Christmas and Easter EVERY day!

    The Coffee Thread!

    I like a cup of Cafe Bustello in the morning with breakfast. I might have one more cup of regular coffee and then decaf for the rest of the day.

    Would Jesus drink Alcohol?

    I did a little research on this. According to scholars researching this, the wine of that day was diluted 2 to 1 and was a little more than half the strength of beer. So an adult could drink a large glass of it without much intoxication. But, if one wanted to drink a half gallon, they could get...

    Why does “Protestant America” have a Supreme Court with a Catholic majority?

    I would say because God Ordained it, and allowed it, as it says in Romans 13. Frankly, we should be happy with even what we have and thank God, given the God-less nature of our nation as a whole. And I am not a Catholic by the way.

    What are you up to?

    No, but with a daughter that drives and heavy snow requiring 4WD autos, we have 4 total, the newest being a 2009. I wouldn’t call myself a mechanic, but I will tackle simple tasks like brakes or struts.

    What are you up to?

    Today was a "tiring" day! Had 4 new tires put on one car. Had another new tire put on a rim for another car. Then, on another car played musical tires. New tire on DF, that tire on PR, that tire on PF so I would have two newer tires in front.

    Global warming or upcoming ice age

    Recently watched a documentary about the “little ice age” the ended in the mid 1800’s. This was most likely caused by volcanic eruptions. So a few large volcanos erupting could bring temps down again. God is indeed in control!

    Miracle workers who couldn't heal themselves!!!

    There is only one “Miracle Worker”: God, That said, we should always look to God for healing. And make use of the medical gifts He has allowed to have as well. And take care of ourselves properly in the first place.

    Should Christians celebrate Halloween?

    Well, I helped out last night with a ministry giving away bibles and bible storybooks and coloring books. Many given out! Now we pray for those that took them. God can always make lemonaid from the lemons. Maybe next year, if you feel the absolute need to take your kids out trick or treating...

    Should Christians celebrate Halloween?

    There is one positive aspect of Halloween. It is a time you can get the Gospel out to folks. A church in our area used to do a Halloween play every year where they contrasted the Kingdom of God vs. The realm of Satan and shared the Gospel of Salvation. I help out with a street ministry every...
