So, I have been on a blogging break due to the insane busyness in my life right now. Next week is looking to be much, much less busy so I hope to get a couple of posts up next week. I want to give you a short preview of something I have been researching only in the past 2 days really that I will be blogging about shortly (hopefully next week).
Have any of you out there heard of the t.v. show called Lost? Well I hadn't paid any attention to it until the past two weeks when I discovered that, sadly, instead of going to your Bible to learn about God's character, some church groups are using this show (which is sprinkled with profane language, blasphemy, violence, and some inappropriate sexual scenes) to try to learn about God. (there is even a book about the "biblical" messages one can pick out from this show). Well, I have watched one and a half episodes of this show, plus a "learn all you need to know about the show in 8 minutes 15 seconds" clip, and have researched a bit about it.
Well, there is no doubt about it-there definitely is a lot of "spirituality" in this television drama full of symbolism, significant names, equations, and puzzles. The question is...what kind of spirituality is it? Some things I have discovered and researched will hopefully help shed some light on the problems with the spirituality in this show.
Until then I ask that, if you think of it, could you remember me in prayer as I have a very important interview coming up this weekend? It has to do with my future post-secondary education.
And, in the meantimes, let's turn off "Lost", which angers God with its blasphemy-using His holy name as a curse word-and, instead, let's open our Bibles to discover everything we need to know about who God is.
