Lisa and I went to see “Get Smart” yesterday afternoon…… It was goofy, but I think that was the plan. I had read several pretty bad reviews but it was not all that bad.
If you have an afternoon with nothing to do or you want something to rent when it comes out on DVD….. There [...]

Dear Friends,
This past week was an awesome week for the testimony for LCCers being God’s love with skin. I think the final total was 47 who showed up eager to serve at an elderly widow’s house in Euless to work hard for hours building, painting, and over a huge construction dumpster full of [...]

Looking for a good animated sci-fi summer family movie? According to Josh Hurst of Christianity Today, Wall-E is one to see.
Here are some out takes from his review:
WALL•E is rated G, and, apart from one or two scenes that might be a little frightening for the very young, it’s suitable for all ages. The short [...]

Review today is by Todd Hertz at Christianity Today…….
Get Smart seemingly does several things right in remaking the quirky spy parody created by Mel Brooks and Buck Henry. First, it involves Brooks and Henry in some capacity as consultants. Second, it features near-perfect casting with Steve Carell as CONTROL agent Maxwell Smart, Anne Hathaway as [...]

There is an article in today’s UK Telegraphon internet addiction. British psychiatrists believe that 1 in 10 online users are addicted. I know what you are thinking, “Man, maybe I check my email too much or I am hanging out on Myspace too long.
Many of us probably do spend way too much time on the [...]

Unlucky for some? Dutch statisticians have established that Friday 13th, a date regarded in many countries as inauspicious, is actually safer than an average Friday.
A study published on Thursday by the Dutch Centre for Insurance Statistics (CVS) showed that fewer accidents and reports of fire and theft occur when the 13th of the month falls [...]

It’s Friday again and I think that Christian parents ought to be aware of the movies that are out there and have the knowledge they need to make informed decisions about movies they watch and allow their children to see.
This week “The Incredible Hulk” hits a theater near you.. This movie is rated PG-13 for sequences [...]

I try to bring you a movie review on Fridays. I think it is important as parent’s especially that we are aware for the sake of our children and as Christians we watch what we are putting in our heads.
Kung Fu Panda is getting a lot of press right now and Jack Black and Dustin [...]

Father’s day is coming up on June 15. I think in the Christian World we tend to spend a lot of time beating up on fathers for working too much, for insensitivity and for just overall not taking the important responsibility of being a fathers or husbands seriously. There are a lot of good fathers around. [...]

I know there is a lot going on this time of year between kids sports, school ending, graduations happening, vacations coming, weddings planning, and summer cranking up. I hope you are taking time to chill and not getting too stressed over the details. A friend of mine passed from this world into [...]
