Angels & Demons















Dan Brown is often attacked by the devoutly religious critics because he questions certain religious dogma. But, don't we all? Isn't this an important thing to do? Questioning your religious views is healthy! As the Bible says "Come let us reason together..."

Tom Hanks said this of his interest in the story: "If you're smart enough to see the trail, smart enough to follow it, and wise enough to put together all the hidden clues... And you only have so much time.  Who doesn't love that?"
 
To take this to a higher personal level, have you ever sought the trail of your own life? Of course, we all do. Haven't you wondered about certain clues and life questions? Questions like: "Why am I here? Where is my life going? What is the purpose of my life?" If this film inspires you to seek to solve such personal mysteries, bravo! Movies such as this one are often invitations to explore the deeper meaning of life.

It was Albert Einstein who reminds us, "The important thing is not to stop questioning." May God help you in your personal quest!

Destructive Communication
Jeremy Zondlo

Simon argues from an entirely human point of view. His chat room never goes the extra step to discuss how God views the world that He created. Had they done this, they would know that every single human life is important to Him.

Season 9
Mike Furches

From 1972 until 1981 this television series captured the hearts of multitudes of viewers. I remember watching the show at my grandparents' house in my troubled years. TV a positive influence? You bet!
