$3 Movies Are Back!!!!!!

My family and I used to frequent this theatre a few years back because it was so cheap. Ok, true it isn't the Arclight but when you are a family of six it's hard to get out to the movies often. I was so excited to hear the Regency was reopening. You can call me a scrooge but there is nothing like a family night out for under $20. I suspect that this will be a very popular hang out for people in the San Fernando Valley with the economy down and unemployment up. I took this picture last week so I was surprised to drive by today and see it open. Click here for more info.

Now playing: Salt, Toy Story 3, The Expendables, Inception, The Other Guys, You Again, Despicable Me and Secretariat.

Partakers of His Suffering

If you are going to be used by God, He will take you through a number of experiences that are not meant for you personally at all. They are designed to make you useful in His hands, and to enable you to understand what takes place in the lives of others. Because of this process, you will never be surprised by what comes your way. You say, “Oh, I can’t deal with that person.” Why can’t you? God gave you sufficient opportunities to learn from Him about that problem; but you turned away, not heeding the lesson, because it seemed foolish to spend your time that way. Read the rest here

The Porn Healing Paradox

The Porn Healing Paradox

The Authority of Truth

It is essential that you give people the opportunity to act on the truth of God. The responsibility must be left with the individual— you cannot act for him. It must be his own deliberate act, but the evangelical message should always lead him to action. Refusing to act leaves a person paralyzed, exactly where he was previously. But once he acts, he is never the same. It is the apparent folly of the truth that stands in the way of hundreds who have been convicted by the Spirit of God. Once I press myself into action, I immediately begin to live. Anything less is merely existing. The moments I truly live are the moments when I act with my entire will. Read the rest here

To Save A Life - Trailer



I got this movie from netflix and it's probably one of the best Christian movies I've seen in a while. I strongly recommend it. I actually just saw it in a Redbox the other day when I was at Ralph's doing some grocery shopping.

Well-Chosen Words

When I was a kid, I learned a big word that was fun to pronounce: “antidisestablishmentarianism.” What a mouthful! I recently took the time to look it up. The dictionary defines it as “the doctrine or political position that opposes the withdrawal of state recognition of an established church.” The definition is almost as difficult as the term itself. Neither I nor my school friends knew what it meant. But using the big word made me look knowledgeable. Read the rest here.

Flavor Fest: Live!!!

Lecrae-Background Ft. C-Lite Video

Coming to Jesus

Isn’t it humiliating to be told that we must come to Jesus! Think of the things about which we will not come to Jesus Christ. If you want to know how real you are, test yourself by these words— “Come to Me . . . .” In every dimension in which you are not real, you will argue or evade the issue altogether rather than come; you will go through sorrow rather than come; and you will do anything rather than come the last lap of the race of seemingly unspeakable foolishness and say, “Just as I am, I come.” Read the rest here

Happy Birthday Elijah!!!

My son turned 10 yesterday and all he wanted was to watch Avatar. No not the naked blue martians, the real Avatar

It's been out for a few weeks now and it was really hard finding a theatre that was still playing it. My wife's Google© skills are impregnable. She not only managed to find a theatre that was still playing The Last Airbender but she found one that only cost $3!!!!! Snacks were provided by the 99¢ Only Store....

It comes with Perfect Push Ups, Ab Wheel and one year subsciption of Men's Health. Pretty good deal!

Jobs Takes Stand

Every once in a while you come across a profound statement made by a prominent leader that makes you realize that there are still great people in the world today. Steve Jobs, the CEO of Apple put his entire reputation on the line by taking a very bold stand regarding the issue of pornography and the decision to block all sites from any of his products. In a world filled with people who would criticize this move and label him a narrow-minded, free speech control freak, I would like to go on the record publicly as saying, “You have got my loyalty and respect!” Here are some thoughts taken from Breakpoint’s website:

Jobs has made it clear that he wants to keep pornography off Apple products as much as possible. Obviously Apple can’t control everything its users do, but it can make porn scarcer on its products, and it has done just that.
A British newspaper, The Guardian,reports, “So insistent is Apple [on this policy], many magazine publishers developing ‘apps’ for the new iPad . . . have had to self-censor.”
As you might expect, this has triggered a frenzy among some critics. Ryan Tate, a writer for the Gawker website, sniped at Jobs about suppressing his customers’ “freedom,” prompting Jobs to respond, “Yep, freedom from programs that steal your private data. Freedom from programs that trash your battery. Freedom from porn. Yep, freedom.”

When Tate replied that he didn’t want “freedom from porn,” Jobs answered, “You might care more about porn when you have kids.” In a correspondence with a consumer, Jobs went even further, speaking of his company’s “moral responsibility to keep porn off the iPhone.”
How refreshing it is to see someone who actually gets it—that yes, there are those of us who prefer to be free from the storm of smut that assaults us from every television, computer, and phone screen. The supply of pornographic material is so overwhelming that access to it is certainly not an issue of “freedom” anymore, if it ever was.
Jobs has pointed out that people who want to see porn on their phones, and who want easier access to it on their computers, can easily get all they want if they buy other companies’ products. But as he said in a press conference, “That’s a place we don’t want to go—so we’re not going to go there.”


What Jobs seems to understand, and what his critics seem to be ignoring, is that there’s so much more to pornography than just issues of economics or free speech. It shouldn’t even need to be explained, but apparently for some people it does: Pornography is an ugly, poisonous, degrading business for everyone involved, whether they’re making it, using it, or selling it.
As my colleague Kim Moreland recently mentioned on our blog, The Point, new studies are demonstrating yet again just how dangerous and addictive it can be. It tears at the fabric of marriages and families and of society itself. Its use is connected from everything to higher divorce rates to human trafficking to the spread of sexually transmitted diseases.
Aside from the occasional reference to protecting kids (which is enough), Steve Jobs didn’t go thoroughly into the reasons for his policy. But for whatever reason, he truly is demonstrating corporate responsibility, the kind that we desperately need more businesses to show in this sex-obsessed society.

May he continue to stand by his principles, and may his tribe increase.

The Prize - Chasing The Dream from John Wantz on Vimeo

Johannesburgo, África.- FIFA has banned players from sharing their faith while participating in the World Cup 2010.

However that hasn't stopped Brazilean soccer star Ricardo Kaka. His sponsor Adidas has helped him find a way for him to share his faith on the field. His new line of soccer shoes have been customized to read, “Jesus In First Place.” For Kaka it is important not to be censored about his faith in Jesus Christ and he has demonstrated it numerous times. In his personal testimony he has shared how he was a virgin when he got married and how he refused to post nude for a publicity campaign which other players had no problem with.

His only wish is that his shoes will be a witness to the world. Thank God for HDTV where everyone will read “Jesus In First Place”
