It's very rare that I reap praise on the CBC. For the most part they are a product of years of Liberal reign in parliament. Anywho, here is a GOLDEN TV show that I happened to stumble across.
Mark Kelly did a superb job watching and commenting on his seven days spent with evangelical Christians. All I can say is wow. The documentary was well done, it was objective, it was cutting, it was calm.
Here are the links direct from CBC:
This is a MUST watch for all Christians. I'm going to drop the 65$ and buy the DVD so I can use it as a tool in discipleship classes. Wow, a lot of the people in the show are YOU and me. Think about that when you make comments.

2/3 of pastors struggle with lust.One study at a recent conference asked 500 pastors some questions. The results are pretty much what we expected.
A surprising result was the 'favorite preacher's' section. For the write in many placed 'TD Jakes' as their favorite. I've heard him speak, he is prolific. However, I've also heard him do other crazy things like throw in 'adlib' tongue speaking in the middle of his speech. He is part of the Oneness Pentecostal movement which is fraught with heresy. For example, denial of orthodox doctrine of the Trinity and promotion of baptismal regeneration.
That's all I"ll say here, when the forum comes up (3 weeks time) we'll open up a topic on him perhaps.

Video of Benny Hinn in action. It's guys like this that represent Christ to the world. Are we prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks us to give the reason for the hope that we have in the context of Benny?
http://www.glumbert.com/media/bodies
He came to Vancouver August 2005 and we went to see him. Benny did not call anyone to repentance, action, evangelism, prayer or Holy action of any sort. The only actions he calls us to is getting healed and giving money to Benny Hinn. That fatal flaw brings me to a burning Holy discontent where his gospel isn’t about repentance, glorifying God or humbling ourselves before God, its about humanism and padding Benny’s wallet.
So what, is what he's doing from God or not? I do not know how to explain the falling down cause if they were all faking it, at least one person would squeal, yet it doesn't happen. I did not fall down so I cannot testify about my experience.
Crazy stuff,
matt

Another Evangelical pastor bites the dust. Is homosexuality rampant in the pulpit? Evangelicals best get off their 'holier than thou' attitude about homosexuality and see what's going on in their own backyard. (Again, I'm not condoning the act of homosexuality in any way.)
In the words of Chris Rock, "everybody's got a gay uncle, you just call him Aunt Tom."

Canadian Same Sex decision closed.
P.s. Don't Carlton students' have finals?
Attention Christians, the decision is final, get over it. I don't want to see another CFAC or other organizations send me email about 'gays'.
Here is an excerpt from one email:
Pray that Members of Parliament will do the right thing:
The final point is the best line I've heard from CFAC. Forget about homosexual marriage, look at your own first. Yes the sanctity of marriage is ruined, but look at yourself, don't cast the first stone.
IF ANYBODY should be concerned about this its me and all other future clergy. The Liberal law is created in such a way that to DENY homosexual marriages would = breaking the Charter = jail.
Proponents of the new law say this will never happen but honestly, all you need is one 'bad apple' to go around picking off clergy one by one.

Liberals compare Conservatives to Nazi's. I suppose Canadian Jews are more than happy the Liberals downgrade the Nazi reign and support Hezbollah.
Dion will 'sacrifice' French citizenship. Why would you trust a man who insisted to keep his citizenship yesterday and today changes his mind?

I too occasionally enjoy jumping aboard to bash Bill Hybels, 40 Days of Purpose, John Eldridge, Velvet Elvis bus. There is a time and a place to be sellectively critical of pursuits you think reflect culture more than Christianity. But at the same time these men and women have done great things for the kingdom of God. In a Christianity Today article 'Dating Jesus' the author was hyper critical of a renewed pursuit of women pursuing God as though they were dating him. Things like making date nights (kinda weird, but still very intriguing), having coffee and dinner while having a converstation with God (how is this different than praying and walking at the same time?), even occasionally getting done up before spending time in devotion and prayer. Well I say, 'Good on you!' How many of us, especially men, corner devotion and time with God into convenient little packages which usually make up the scraps of our time left over from the day. I can understand the voice of sarcasm, and even the voice of reason, but the voice of criticism for something so genuine . . . Maybe the author's just jealous that she doesn't have a date with Jesus this Friday.
