My wife and I raised three children and while it would be a stretch to say that we enjoyed every minute of it, we wouldn’t have changed anything. One thing that we did change was the stress, insanity and the overwhelming highs and lows of “Christmas Day”.

We’ve all heard it said that music is the universal language, and it’s so true. No other vehicle more powerfully captures our collective hopes and fears or more poignantly celebrates our dreams and triumphs. With one listen to the music of Tenth Avenue North, it becomes obvious that songwriter Mike Donehey and his bandmates have a gift for expressing truth in a way that simultaneously educates, enlightens and entertains.

People talk about drunken sailors being the most foul-mouthed people in the world. I wouldn’t know, I’ve never been a drunken sailor nor have I met one. But I do know a four letter word that I rarely hear anyone repeat no matter how loose they are with their tongue. In fact I’ll wager that you rarely if ever have used this word yourself, especially with any personal reference, no matter how tough life gets.

The Greek word from which we get the term church is ekklesia. It is in the New Testament that we see this term come to have its technical sense of a group of people who have gathered for the purpose of instruction and worship. It is used in the broadest sense of the universal church – that body of all believers in Christ from Pentecost to the rapture e.g. ‘I will build my church’ Matthew 16:18. In another facet of meaning it could be used of believers in a certain city e.g. Revelation 1-3. It was also used in the New Testament to describe those believers meeting in one location Romans 16:3-5.

It’s easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, Jesus said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel.

The answer is different for each of the four couples featured in this relationship comedy, which includes Janet Jackson as a psychologist whose own marriage is on shaky ground. Not known for subtlety, Perry hammers in the point that no marriage is perfect–just as no one is completely blameless. Even when he presents a thoughtless husband who cheats on his wife with her hot best friend, he doesn’t present the wife as a helpless martyr.
Old Testament Is Just As Inspired As New Testament. So Why Do So Many Ignore it?

The Old Testament lays the foundation for the teachings and events found in the New Testament. First, the Old Testament is of great importance to Christians because it is inspired of God (2 Tim. 3.16-17). Some Christians ignore the Old Testament and focus on the New, but only those who read the New in light of the Old can really learn what God is saying in His Word. The Old Testament provides a fore shadow of the blessing revealed in the New Testament (Hebrews 10: 1).
