‘Lost’ finds religion

Posted June 8th @ 8:14 am by Josh Larsen

Is it safe to talk about “Lost” yet?
The cult television series had its season finale a few weeks back, so hopefully this post won’t ruin anything for anyone. If it’s still waiting on your DVR, a familiar word of warning: spoilers ahead.
The episode, entitled “The Incident,” opened with a scene that appeared to offer a [...]

The number one paid app for the iPhone right now is a game called “Pocket God.” For $0.99, you are promised that you can understand what it would be like to be a god.
Here’s how the game’s creators tout the app.

Magnificent God on Letterman

Posted March 9th @ 2:08 pm by Steven Koster

Is anyone else amazed at what U2 can get away with?
The band has a new album out and appeared on David Letterman every night last week. On Tuesday, they played a song called “Magnificent” which reads like Old Testament Psalm:

Magnificent!

I was born, I was born to be with you
In this Space and Time,

Why I Got Rid of My DVR

Posted January 8th @ 10:54 am by Mary Hulst

I’ve made a bold choice for this New Year.  I’ve decided to give up my DVR.
A DVR is a Digital Video Recorder.  It allows you to pause, rewind, and record TV shows with alarming ease.  For me, this meant I could start a program, pause it, go get a cup of tea and a cookie, [...]

‘Dark Knight’ of our souls

Posted July 18th @ 3:09 pm by James

In the latest Batman film, the villan’s green clown wig and make-up are gone! Instead, The Dark Knight’s “Joker” is the very face of evil. And yet, in his madness, he forces the citizens of Gotham to examine their own good and evil—and the shadows that lie between.

Phil Vischer—you know, the VeggieTales guy—recently announced he’s getting back into Christian media. How, you ask? Well, he’s launching a kids media studio that will distribute exclusively on the internet through a monthly subscription service.
Oh, and you get to pick your price.
It’s just crazy enough to work.
He explains how and why in the video below [...]

Sex and the Pity

Posted May 25th @ 5:21 pm by James

The popular HBO series Sex and the City is coming to the big screen. The series followed relationship columnist and anthropologist, Carrie Bradshaw, as she and her three gal pals indulged in designer shoes and casual sex. As a researcher, Bradshaw somehow missed some important research findings on the subject—and that’s a pity!
For [...]

Swearing in Movies

Posted May 9th @ 2:17 pm by Chris Salzman

If you’re an avid reader of Christian blogs, you’ve probably run across Stuff Christians Like more times than you can count in the past few weeks. I happen to like the John Acuff’s oft-witty always insightful observations about the church.
Yesterday he wrote about Christians counting swearing in movies:
I have some friends that are like the [...]

A blast from the WAY past

Posted April 24th @ 10:49 pm by Administrator

Keith Green was one of the most popular contemporary Christian musicians in the late ‘70s/early ‘80s. He and 10 others (including two of his children) tragically died in a plane crash in 1982.
I had the privilege of interviewing him for a music magazine. He was truly a musical prophet, a musical genius with a rough [...]
