This weekend, we (here in America) celebrated the Fourth of July – also known as Independence Day. And while you might not think that fireworks and flags have to do with Jesus – well, I’m out to prove that I can make anything churchy. I love the Fourth. I’ve experienced it in places as big as Boston and as small as Covecrest. No matter where I go, though, there’s always the same emotion in my heart: gratitude. I’m not simply thankful for getting to watch a good show or pig out on hot Read more [...]
This week is a crazy one for anybody involved in Life Teen: it’s Convention week.

Will Christian Bale successfully relaunch another movie franchise?
Ben Stiller and the gang are back in an even bigger adventure.
I’m not sure if you’ve heard, but some pretty famous people have been talking about abortion the last few days. One of them was the President of the United States, and he said that we need to “open our hearts and minds to those who may not think like we do… [and] discover at least the possibility of common ground,” while also admitting that “…the views of the two camps are irreconcilable.” That second quote is right on. As much as we talk about common ground and having open minds, you’ve got Read more [...]

Boldly go where no one has gone before, really!
