An update...

Recently, I gave a word of advice to Jennifer. Here's what she wrote:

"Thank you so much Trish for taking the time to answer my message. She did not receive the truth, rather she stated she did not feel convicted about her new lifestyle. She cut me out of her life. I was hurt, but I can relate to rejecting the truth too BC. I'll keep praying for her. I sit in tears today for the lost. I thank God for this burden He has given me. Thank you again. Her name is Nicole, please pray for her salvation. Your Sister in Christ, Jennifer"

“Still Growing” by Kirk Cameron

Here's how Kirk Cameron describes his life during the peek of his fame in his new autobiography:

"I received 10,000 letters per week, mostly from girls who wanted to meet me, touch me, marry me. I had a fan club that sent out a variety of keepsakes—photos, Tshirts, buttons, even a pillowcase with my picture just the right size for girls to kiss my fabric-y likeness as they drifted off to sleep. Weird.

Wherever I went people catered to me. Limousines carted me off to the next gig. Waiters comped my meals. Flight attendants whispered, “Mr. Cameron, why don’t you come with me?” and escorted me to first class. Once off the plane, people laid down a red carpet and greeted me on the tarmac with military-like fanfare.

When I arrived at a party, everyone sat up and took notice. The room buzzed with not-so-quiet whispers: “Isn’t that Kirk Cameron?” The adoration was obvious in the body language, facial expressions and eagerness of those around me. All of it baffled me beyond belief. I was in the midst of a phenomenon I felt I had no hand in creating.

I had everything the rest of the world craved—money, fame, fortune, any girl I wanted. I admit, I liked that part. What 16-year-old guy didn’t want girls to melt when he walked in the room? And I certainly wasn’t complaining when Domino’s Pizza offered me a million bucks to be their ad boy.

If I didn’t have something, it was only because I didn’t want it. I was a devout atheist, livin’ large, hanging out with the beautiful people."

Now flash forward to his conversion experience where at the age of seventeen he came to know Christ through the family of a friend. Kirk explains:

"A month after my first visit to her church, I dropped my friend off at her acting class in the San Fernando Valley. As I pulled away, something flashed through my mind: I’m part of the ultimate statistic: 10 out of 10 people die. I’m going to die one day. If it were to happen in the next 10 minutes—if I were to get in a car accident and die—what would happen to me? The thought overwhelmed me. I felt smaller than a speck of sand."

That's just a teaser...
you'll have to BUY the book to read the rest. :-)

His middle name must be "Postmodern"

This is David from Hour 1--yesterday on The Way of the Master Radio. If you were listening, you would have thought his middle name was "Postmodern". David was quick to get off the phone with Todd Friel because he "had to get to class" but you'll be happy to know I think it was because he was pricked by the law.

He stayed around long enough to tell me that "Hell would be the worst place for anyone to go." So I explained, "We don't want you to go there David...that's why we are doing this." He listened and I told him about what Christ did on the cross so that sinners can go free.

Look at his face when I showed him the pink and blue tracts (he just lit up sorry we didn't get any close ups of that).

I guess he didn't have to run so quick to class after all. :-)

What place is God at in your life? A PK tells us her thoughts...

Meet Kimberly, a pastors kid. She's a student at Tarrant Community College and was on The Way of the Master Radio last Thursday. She believes that God is in the passenger seat--right next to her and that He shouldn't be in the drivers seat (that would give him too much control). Want to hear more?

"You're advice would be appreciated."

"....the reason I am writing is because I have a friend who claims to be a Christian, but has recently been drinking, dressing sensually, and holding company with unbelievers. How would you address this? Sometimes I am not as gentle as I would like on my approach. She's easily defensive. You're advice would be appreciated. God Bless! Jennifer"

Jennifer, I am so sad to hear this but I am pleased that you want to address her in love with the truth. Thanks for asking my advice. I would suggest taking her to Gal 5:19-21 which says:

"Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God."

I'd also explain that you love her and that you're concerned for her walk with God because you have been observing some liberties in her life that are deeply concerning you. You didn't mention if she is drinking to get drunk but if she is, she is in sin and in clear violation of scripture. If this is the case, then I would take heed to Gal 6: 1 which says, "Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted."

You may also want to take her to 1 Peter 3: 4-5 and address the modesty issue. These verses are speaking to married women so how much more would it be applicable to women how are single! Listen to what the Bible says about how we should adorn ourselves...

"Do not let your adornment be merely outward—arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel— rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God."

It's always good to go directly to scripture and let the Word of God answer for you. Then you can take comfort knowing that if your friend gets upset you don't have to take it personal--her issue is with the Lord. I pray that the Lord will give you the courage to speak the truth to her, in love, about these issues. And if you detect that she's false convert, use Gal 5 as a springboard and take her through the law.
