Tom and I went to see the movie "Bella" last night. If you want to show Hollywood that movies don't need to be saturated with sleaze and violence, you should go to this one. It's thought provoking and touching. That's all I want to say about it.
Regarding the incident in church last week, click on the Apex link on the sidebar if you'd like to hear yesterday's take on it. Our pastor squarely addressed it. Good job, Pastor Rob Turner. One thing, too, we always need to discern is the difference between conviction from the Holy Spirit and accusations from the father of lies. If we're not careful we can be easily confused, because, as pastor pointed out, a tactic of the enemy is to twist scripture. My personal experience has been that accusation from satan leads to relentless guilt, while conviction from the Holy Spirit can be resisted at the expense of becoming calloused and depraved (Romans 1:28), but if surrendered to, it leads to repentence and redemption.
Thanks for checking in on me. Have a wonderful T-day!
