This is a review of the documentary called Divided. I’ll warn you up front, this movie may well be very challenging and upsetting. But I think it is right for the most part. So I challenge you, especially pastors and fathers, to take the time to watch it and consider what it says. Before moving

Movie Review: Fireproof/Courageous
A couple of months ago some friends invited me to a movie night. We ended up watching “Fireproof”, a movie which I hadn’t even remembered hearing about. Essentially all of the “Christian” movies I’s seen before—even the good ones—had been deficient or sub-par in some way. Personally, I’m not normally a big fan of “inspirational”
Community and The Specials

I went to see the movie, “The Passion of the Christ” last night, and felt that I wanted to post my thoughts. Especially in the last few weeks, momentum has really built for this movie. Many people have been talking about it, and the hype has grown to the point that it is expected to
Movie Review: Edward Scissorhands
This is a great movie, with many levels of rich meaning that can be taken from it. The angle that I took the most from was this: Edward’s Scissor hands were what made him special, and were what allowed him to create beautiful works of art, from sculpted hedges to unique hair cuts, that brought
