Weird Scrabble Contest

I'll just bet you weren't aware, but this is National Scrabble Week and it's also Weird Contest Week.  In honor of both, we're having a Weird Scrabble Contest.  In true Scrabble style, we are asking you to find words among the following random letters you might have if you were allowed this many letters when playing Scrabble. RULES: 1. From among the letters listed here, find all the possible you might put down on a Scrabble board if it were your turn.  All the words have to have something to do with communication.  For each word, you cannot reuse letters unless there are more than one of that letter listed (just like it is in real Scrabble).  Each word is...

Happy Father's Day

 This Sunday was Father's Day so Happy Father's Day to all the dads!  I've been reading, lately, about the sad state of celebration of fathers out there.  Most people go to a lot of trouble for Mother's Day, taking mom out to dinner, buying her flowers and a special gift.  Fathers don't seem to merit the same attention.  It may be just that taking mom out to dinner is more appreciated because she gets a break from all the nights she has to cook her own dinner or the fact that mothers do have a more difficult time during the pregnancy and birth of baby, but fathers seem to be getting short shrift.  The Bible compares fathers to our heavenly...

Day 22 of the Countdown to CHRISTmas-CHRISTmas Shoes

Today's video is one that I can never get through without crying.  The precious gift of a child for his mom who may meet Jesus tonight.  It's called The CHRISTmas Shoes and sung by Newsong. The video is like a mini movie and just as precious as it could be to show the love of a child for his mother on CHRISTmas Eve. This is the Love of Christ right in the heart of that little boy and how he shows the man in line behind him a glimpse into the kind of love that Jesus has for us. Tomorrow is another great video. Until then... If you liked this post, please subscribe to our RSS feed and share the...

Day 20 of the Countdown to CHRISTmas-CHRISTmas Offering

Another debut video for the AoE countdown to CHRISTmas is Casting Crowns with CHRISTmas Offering. I bring an offering of worship to my King.  I thought about these words.  As we juggle the crowds at the mall and the hustle and bustle of the holday season, we need to stop not only to thank the Lord for the gift that Jesus has given us, but also to offer ourselves as a gift to Him.  To worship and to allow Him to do with us what He wills. We are winding down the countdown to CHRISTmas this year.  Tomorrow is another in just a few more until we celebrate the most precious gift we have ever received: the free gift of salvation in Christ Jesus. If...
