Leave Those JoBros Alone!

Ok, so I am not a Jonas Brothers fan or anything, but I do respect these boys. They wear purity rings... how cool? :)

Kevin, (Jonas on right), is getting married. They want a calm family event for his bachelor party. A yahoo blogger cannot stand the fact that there may be pure people in the world.

"An epic night of debauchery -- he'll regret it later if he doesn't do it now. " Seriously- regret? Living for Christ is nothing to regret... having a crazy bachelor party WOULD be something to regret.

Get full ridiculous story here.

Romans 12:2- And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.

Psalm 101:3 Laughs

In this post, I mentioned about godly entertainment choices.

We have Sirius satellite radio, and there we were introduced to Christian Comedian, Bob Smiley. He is so funny and his sets are God honoring! What more could you want? :) Be sure to check out his website and listen to some of his stuff. We are huge fans, and we think you should be too! :)
How big of fans are we? We were making plans for our two year anniversary and had nothing down on paper yet... one month away, so I took over the planning. ;) I was looking at Bob's website and saw that he would be at the Woodland's the weekend we were planning to celebrate. Now we had plans! We planned the whole weekend around his show. We were so glad we did! We had a wonderful weekend, a wonderful night at his show, and we got to meet him!!! :) (Please excuse this less than stellar picture of me. I don't like it- but it is the only one we got with Bob, so there ya go)! :)

Sermon Jams

Here is a link for a GREAT resource!!! You HAVE to check it out!!! You will not be disappointed!!!

Psalm 101:3

Psalm 101:3 says: "I will set before my eyes no vile thing."

We Christians do not follow this I am afraid. After becoming a Christian I knew certain movies were unacceptable to God, so I got them out of my life. Easy. Then I heard God again prompting me, but I (once again), didn't like what I was hearing. If you study the word, "ungodly," you will find that it is not a synonym for wicked; no, it is an antonym for godly... meaning simply, void of God. So in other words, a rated R movie with sex and cussing is wicked, while a Disney movie is only ungodly. Starting to make sense? Every time I would hear a sermon on ungodliness or read it in God's Word, I would see Disney, but I would shake it off. There is nothing evil about Disney, and I didn't own any rated R movies, so what is the big deal God?

The big deal? When I sat in front a t.v. show or movie for like 2 hours... well, that was 2 hours I could have spent with God. God created us to glorify Him, to love Him, to fellowship with Him. How is watching Beauty and the Beast fellowshipping with God? It is not. I may have a little free time now, but when kids come it will dwindle to nothing, I am aware. How should I spend my free time... with Cinderella? Or with God? Um, yeah, GOD!!!

God called us to give up all our secular movies, and only keep the movies that are godly. This way, if we watch a movie in our free time, we are still spending time with God!

I challenge you today to go through your movies, music, books, and tv shows and pray for the Holy Spirit to convict you! Let me know if you do get convicted so we can pray for your strength to turn away, and also so we can praise God together for the work He is doing in you! :)
