As FOX Network puts the finishing touches on its advertisement lineup for the February 6th Super Bowl — arguably as popular a part of the evening as the game itself — one thing is certain: just about any thing will be permissible in the way of sex, sleaze, and crude humor. Apparently, however, one type of ad will not be permitted: those promoting positive values and faith in God.

Following last year’s media furor over a Focus on the Family-sponsored pro-life spot during the Super Bowl featuring Christian football phenomenon Tim Tebow and his mother, FOX has put the kibosh on wholesome advocacy ads with the potential of offending any viewer with an opposing viewpoint.

Christian Mens Breakfast, Saturday, December 11, 2010

The discussion notes ( PDF / TEXT ) for breakfast on Saturday, December 11, 2010 are now online — ”A Bird’s Eye View of the New Testament”. This week we take on the impossible task of reviewing the New Testament in 60 minutes. Actually, we are hitting only the high points of who wrote the New Testament and when. Any by the way, how did it get to be the New Testament anyway??? Study verses: Acts 3:1-10 and Acts 4:5-21.

If you would like details so you can join us, or if you have any other questions, please call Tom Truex. Or send an email by using the CONTACT form on K-Line.ORG.

Happy Easter!

empty tomb
And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb.
LUKE 24:1 But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb, taking the spices they had prepared. 2 And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb, 3 but when they went in they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. 4 While they were perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel. 5 And as they were frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead? 6 He is not here, but has risen. Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee, 7 that the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men and be crucified and on the third day rise.” 8 And they remembered his words, 9 and returning from the tomb they told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest. Luke 24:1-9 (ESV)
