We’re gonna go Golden Corral style this week and just give you a huge sampling of articles/links from around the web that you might wanna visit.

Health Food Heresy: When Eating Healthy Becomes Your God: “Have you ever thought that as you’re eating pesticide-free, chemical-free, dye-free, calorie-free, fat-free, gluten-free, dairy-free, or carb-free, you may also be eating Jesus-free? I can nail my calorie intake day in and day out, exercise three to five times a week, and keep of food journal and still be more in bondage than ever before.”

Planned Parenthood, The Killing of Infants, and the Return to Paganism: This article made me sick at some points to read. It is alarming to see where the logic of some people is turning. Then again, it is not surprising. When we cast off belief in a deity who is the creator of life, then we become our own judges and can justify nearly anything.

The Truth About Parenting Kids in an Unsafe World: “We aren’t really in control…God doesn’t call us to be safe…This is not our forever home…Perception is still perception.”

Some Creative Face-Painting of Kids: not sure I’d have the patience or the skill to come up with some of these

Watch Me! a great video to watch, so that we remember to live a live of intentional example-setting for those who come behind us
