Just rented this movie last night. I defiantly recommend it. Lots of great things to think about as a Christian. Here is a sample of the movie and an interview with Dan Merchant who made the film. Enjoy...

Artemis Peter Pan?
OK, so I know this is a little random and a bit of a detour...my brain does that from time to time...LOL. If you have been reading along for the last few posts we have been discussing goddesses of the ancient world. The last goddess we just discussed was Artemis of Ephesus fame.
So my kids {ages 6 and 3} have been watching Disney's "Peter Pan" off and on for the last couple of days. One of my favorites, although I have never read the original book by J.M Barrie. Remember how in the last post I said that Artemis was a female Peter Pan of sorts? Well I got to thinking...{remember my brain is a bit strange} that they do have quite a bit in common...at least with the Disney movie. Let me explain....

Modern Day Jesus
I came across this website via a friend on facebook. With my love for photography and the Lord these were right up my alley! I don't usually like "Jesus" pictures but Mr. Belk has done a fantastic job with these images. I hope that you enjoy them as much as I do. Really they need no explanation. There are plenty thought provoking in and of themselves.

HE Can Fix You!
This may seem a little out of the box. I don't really like boxes! Try to listen to this song as a conversation between you and God. God doesn't have to TRY to fix you...He can fix you...if you let Him. He is the light that will guide you and the fire that will ignite you!

"GENESIS" Adult Supervision Recommended

To be released later this month is the book of Genesis "as you have never seen it before! Adult supervision recommended." The new "book" has been illustrated by legendary comic artist R. Crumb, who is a self professed Gnostic. His site is here. I am just a tad too young to remember any of his works from the 60s and 70s. But from the very limited research I have done on Mr. Crumb he has always had a bit of controversy around him.
For this particular "book" I have read most of the hub-bub and really don't see what the big deal is. You know the usual complaints of too much sex and violence. In this case however it "is" the bible we are talking about. What is most interesting to me is that Mr. Crumb set out to turn the book of Genesis into satire but later decided it was already too wild in it's own right. So the book he ended up with claims to be word for word, unabridged "Genesis"; just with Mr. Crumbs comic book style illustrations. And anyone that has read Genesis knows that does mean lots of sex and violence.
So I say...Hmmmm, very interesting...might have to check this one out myself. What do you think? You can see more pics from this book here. I couldn't get them to post on this blog for some reason. Be warned...Adam and Eve were in fact naked in the garden!
