Thank you for the question. Not sure why you singled out television. Dramatic acting has been around for, what, millennia? Long before television, stories were acted out around campfires. Television is just a technology for reaching large audiences around the world. The craft of acting is...

Thank you for this post. Help me understand why these passages are important for us today. Peace.

Thank you for the post and discussion. Recall some of what Jesus told us: Matthew 22:37 : Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘You shall...

A legendary boxer is dead at age 76. How should Christians view violent, contact sports? On the one hand, we are called to be gentle, peaceful souls. On the other hand, a community might have cause to defend itself (Matthew 18: 15 - 17), perhaps even with the help of a (pugilistic) hero...

Thank you for these heart-wrenching posts. Any doubt we live in a broken world, with so many who have separated themselves from God? Let us pray for all those who are victims of vicious crimes and injustice, when they are just going about their business. Let us also pray for the criminals and...

Wake me up when she has been indicted.

Sorry, my sarcasm sensor does not always function adequately. Blessings.

Thank you for your question. On the one hand, because created us as social mammals, our basic instincts are to be self-centered, lusting after selfish desires and rationalizing behavior that will fulfill those desires. On the other hand, God created us in His image, so that He could...

Thank you for your post. Help me understand your comment better. Are we owed “free“ health care? (Meaning, someone else, like a rich person, needs to pay for our health care?) As Christians, we are called to feed the hungry, give drink to the thirsty, shelter the stranger, clothe the naked...

Thank you for your post. It is significant that at the Communion Table we partake of bread and wine, and not “granola” (roasted grain) and juice. Seeds and grapes even animals eat, but being made in the image of God, we are promised more. From grain to bread requires inspiration from, and...

Thank you for the post. Blessings.

Thank you for your heartfelt post. The both of you are blest—he by a long life and a child who honors him; you by your compassion. Cherish each day. God will supply you both with your needs. As always, pray for guidance and understanding. Blessings.

Thank you for your observations. There is no reason for Christians to want to “escape” with drugs that deliberately alter one’s mental state. But yes, some do offer beneficial pain relief (although addiction can be a problem). Thus, it might be argued that laws restricting such drugs are...

Thanks for posting. What does Persecution Rank #18 mean? Are there 17 other countries where Christian persecution is even worse? Blessings.

Thank you for the delightful summary of your wonderful experience. However: one phrase caught my eye— Indeed, many Americans do behave like basic social mammals, but here and there, in the Christian community, you will find many like her. Re Tennessee: aha—a soft-spoken Southern woman, one of...

Amen. ”Music needs to be chosen by the Lord”! Absolutely Right. He has never let me down when I have asked for inspiration regarding music for a service. And: We pray that all who attended your service left with spirits fed and ready to do His will. Peace.
