        If this is you -- be encouraged, God is faithful to all those who put their trust in Him.  He will not allow any us who hope in him to be put to shame.  As a matter of fact, I'm a witness that whether it's ministering to a someone one-on-one or in small group setting, God is faithful in manifesting His assuring presence and Word at just the right time!

        <i><b>Originally posted in February 2004</b></i> - I am one of the many Americans who looked forward to the nationwide release of Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ." Of course, if you looked at a lot of mainstream media pre-release hype, you would worry that I will light a torch after the viewing and try to kill some innocent people. Those "reporters" that lambasted the movie without even seeing it, hardly deserve to have their remarks addressed.

        I'm sorry to see that the debate over education has become mired in race again. When Lt. Gov. Mark Taylor and key African-American legislators opposed Gov. Sonny Perdue's suggestion that Georgia consider linking HOPE scholarships to SAT scores, they claimed to be out to protect black students. I agree with their assessment that, on average, African-American students often underperform white students on standardized tests such as the SAT, but I think that a long-term solution to this problem is a lot more complex.

        I chuckle and shake my head whenever I remember one of my sociology professors in college, droning on about how hard Americans work compared to the rest of the world. Of course she was comparing Americans to a certain variety of Western Europeans, in that ignorant Euro-centric way so typical of second-rate academics. Her point was that we, as a nation, need to learn how to relax more, take more time on vacation and stop being in such a rush.

        Recently, both the New York Times and USA Today reported on the first outbreak of AIDS among American college students. These students were disproportionately black and from the Southeastern United States. The information was revealed at an AIDS conference in San Francisco held in February 2004. The facts in themselves are disturbing: not only do black men (who have sex with men) make up 88% of these new college student AIDS cases, but a third of these men also have sex with women.

        At the risk of adding more words to an already verbose dialogue, I would like to make a few observations about the 2004 election, and what it means for the body of Christ. In the interest of honesty and transparency, I should tell you that I voted for President Bush, and consider myself a conservative. I should also tell you that I spent at least the first 25 years of my life as a Democrat. I recognize that there are sincere Christians who voted differently for reasons that they feel are equally important.

        The word "poverty" is one of the more loaded terms in our national vocabulary. It is also perhaps one the most over-simplified "issues" being bantered about in the public square. The media, for the most part, has explained it to us this way: compassionate people who care about the poor favor government programs to help them. Cold-hearted people who want to see homeless children starve to death do not.

        We can never forget that genuine "positive self-esteem" and "self-acceptance" comes from a clean conscience before God, obtained by the accepting Jesus' work on the cross. Any cheap substitute that involves some variation on the "everybody does it" line will only assuage guilt, not obliterate it. Many a condemned Christian declares through clenched teeth that God knows his heart. Yes, He does, but do you know your heart?

        The summer of 2004 has already seen Shrek 2 clear the coveted $400 million dollar mark, with Spiderman 2 close on its heels. Yet most big budget films haven&#8217;t done so well. Two recent box office busts in particular, Mona Lisa Smile and The Stepford Wives draw attention to a cultural shift that is taking place in our nation. Both movies had a lot of star power and large promotional budgets in their favor, yet according to boxofficemojo.com, Mona Lisa Smile grossed just under $64 million domestically, failing to make back it&#8217;s $90 million production and marketing costs.
