"You've Got the Time!"

Posted in Free Stuff

Faith Comes by Hearing and hearing by the Word of God.” (Romans 10:17)

If you could listen to the Bible everyday for 40 days, would it impact your life? Would it challenge you to live each day as Christ taught us to? Would it provide peace in troubled times? Did you know that over 65% of Christians in America have never read the entire New Testament?

Take the challenge! – Listen through the entire New Testament in 40 days

… just 28 minutes a day!

You can listen at home, in your car, on your computer, or even while exercising! But most importantly, choose to engage in the listening.

There is a FREE downloadable version online. Simply go to faithcomesbyhearing.com.

The Secret Life of Bees -- Free Screening

Posted in Free Stuff

Starring Queen Latifah, Dakota Fanning, Jennifer Hudson, Alicia Keys and Sophie Okonedo, a powerhouse ensemble of women from the world of music and film, THE SECRET LIFE OF BEES is the touching story about the need for love, sisterhood and redemption that explores the undeniable desire for a sense of belonging and the often daunting journeys that we must navigate to achieve it. Set in South Carolina, the home of the intelligent and independent honey-making Boatwright sisters (Latifah, Keys and Okonedo) is suddenly thrust into upheaval with the arrival of fourteen year-old Lily Owens (Fanning) and her caretaker Rosaleen (Hudson). Surrounded by the unexpected comforts, grace and deep rooted spirituality Lily (Fanning) encounters in the Boatwright home, she soon forms a maternal bond with each of these women whose unique and special gifts help reconcile the loss of her mother. Through the strength and female empowerment that embodies the Boatwright sisters, Lily ultimately comes to the realization that sometimes you must leave home in order to find it.
