Who built the ark?

Are you serious?  Noah.

i talked to the kids about homosexuality tonight.  talk about a heavy, but necessary topic for kids.  i have 7th to college age students all in the same room, so sometimes it is hard to land on a topic, but i felt that it was necessary for them to have a biblical understanding of homosexuality, and the churches need to love people and pray for their reconciliation and restoration.  as i talked with them i brought up the media, and it dawned on me, tv today is on a mission to make sin not only acceptable but fashionable.  think of the tv shows that are popular, and you will find adultery, homosexuality, foul speech, drinking and drug use, nudity, sexual immorality, and all this is piped to a willing audience that is taught everyday by their tv set that this kind of behavior is ok, because really everyone is doing it.  as a dad, and annie as a mom, we have decided to be much more aware of what maddy and phoebe see, no more rated R movies for them, and no more beer, they are now on veggie tales and white wine, but seriously we need to be careful what they see, and what we see for that matter.  our prayer should be for our eyes to see sin as our Father in heaven sees sin, what would everything look like then?  would we turn the tv on, would we watch that movie.  i think not, 

your friend and confidant.
