The digital frontier is ripe for the harvest but many Christians don't know how to speak the language or even how to enter that culture. So, this mission field goes without workers. Gordon Marcy has a good article that will help those of us who are not "digital natives" work in this new culture.

Driscoll, Avatar, and Native Justice
Don't tell anyone, but I enjoyed Avatar. I found it to be quite entertaining and found some of the points made in the movie great discussion starters. There have been a few (including Mark Driscoll) who have denounced the movie as a whole. This article from the Out of Ur blog is a good response to those who don't quite get it. I urge you to read it and let me know of your thoughts.

Better than a Hallelujah
One of our more popular songs on the Morning Show and WRAF has been Amy Grant's last "Better Than Hallelujah." The message behind the song is so powerful. If you are hurting or going through a trial, praise and worship is the best way to heal your soul. Click the link below to read an interview with Amy Grant from Break Point.

Our Core Freedoms Are Eroding Away
This past weekend we celebrated the 234th birthday of this great nation. As my family and watched fireworks I was reminded about the freedoms that we hold to and those freedoms are what make our country to unique.
However, you need to know about what may be one of the gravest, most insidious threats to religious freedom I've ever seen. What may be an attempt, at the very highest levels of government, to RE-DEFINE the very meaning of religious freedom, from "free exercise" to merely private worship.
In a speech at Georgetown Univeristy, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton commented on a new direction in government policy that puts our religious liberties are in peril. Please, click on the link below to see Chuck Colson's "Two Minute Warning" video commentary to see exactly what I'm talking about. Study carefully the play on words; words matter. I urge you: Watch this video, share it with friends. Write a letter to the editor of your newspaper - point out what is going on. It's time to expose this outrageous and dangerous assault on religious freedom. We cannot be asleep at our posts while we still have the freedom to speak out
