Great Article on Disney's Narnia & Great Films

Up From the Church Basement, by Cal Thomas (Town Hall)

Here's a teaser:
"Everything those awful movies were ["Christian" Films], this one isn't. It faithfully follows the storyline conceived by C.S. Lewis, the Belfast native, gigantic intellect, Christian apologist and Oxford professor, who died 42 years ago, but whose work continues to sell and challenge the self-indulgent and disbelieving spirit of the age. Lewis believed in taking on the popular philosophies of his day on their own turf, not retreating into religious catacombs.""

This Christmas, Focus on the Family Singapore has been given permission from the National Tourism Board to bring World of Narnia. to Orchard Road from 17-24 December, 12 noon to 9 pm daily, to coincide with Disney’s 22-Dec release of the movie, “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” And I've been asked to write and direct the interactive WORLD OF NARNIA - with 4 weeks lead time on this 350,000 project! These folks have BIG FAITH! If you're not familiar with Focus on the Family, it is a Christian organization established to support and build strong families. They offer a wide range of magazines, books, cds, videos and seminars for kids and adults. (the "Adventures in Odyssey" radio drama and video series was produced by this organization). This event is a great way to offer families an affordable adventure to do together over the holiday, as well as give GREAT exposure to the resources this organization has to offer.

Artists Gathering 2005 (A4J)



It was a great meeting last night...A nice mix of people...a sweet time of sharing and praying for one another. Wish there were more time to hear from everyone. You are all His WORKMANSHIP or POEM - You're God's original expression of himself to the world. So sweet to see how your craft is shaping up in you and how you reflect his glory!

Oh did we have a sweet time in Cameron Highlands. I do think this OMF Bungalow is my favourite spot in SE Asia. Paul did some teaching, Peter proposed to Diana, we gave Diamond Ensemble and Enacted Prayer a try and most of us really enjoyed worshipping God in a new way. I think this was a FIRST for some in the group: a retreat where we really retreated for quiet and solitude and relaxation. The "retreats" we're used to here are mostly very RAH RAH with packed schedules of sessions... Not this retreat! Yeah Paul! I especially loved just laying in bed, doing some stitching (a handmade gift for my nephew) and listening to the rain, just wasting time with God like lovers like to do.
