Thanksgiving Poem

Filed under: News — admin @ 1:32 pm


Whelp, Thanksgiving is over, did you have fun? I definitely did! My parent’s food was fantastic and we had some friends over for much laughs and lots of joy overall. We even had fun playing four-player Buzz (PS2). Makes a perfect party game!

And while the Thanksgiving holiday may be done with, that doesn’t mean that the spirit of Thanksgiving has to end. To the contrary, Thanksgiving is something we as Christians should be doing continuously (pray without ceasing as the Bible says), both to our Lord as well as just being thankful in general for what we have.

Here is a nice poem I thought I’d share. Thanks to Stryper’s myspace for posting this:

GIVING THANKS

Thanksgiving comes but once a year
A day filled with peace and love
We spend time with those who are dear
And to thank our Lord above

For all the blessings He bestows
Sometimes we forget to pray
But on this special day he knows
For Him we reserve this day

We thank him for our families
For the food that’s on our plates
For all the opportunities
To grow in the United States

We thank him for the work we do
And nice friends to spend time with
We thank him for our houses, too
Not everyone is blessed with this

Thanksgiving comes but once a year
Not everyone gets their share
For those who aren’t as lucky as us
Remember them in your prayers

–Patty Apostolides

The Annual Great Turkey Give-Away 2007

Filed under: News — admin @ 7:33 pm

'Make My Day' TurkeyI hope everyone is having a glorious Thanksgiving!

Ours is only just now getting started at 6 in the evening! But I CAN’T WAIT TO EAT!!!!!!!!!
I thought I’d go ahead and do one more Thanksgiving-related post on this awesome holiday. And what is it? This is my home church, People’s Church (used to be Church on Fire) in Phoenix, Arizona on the local Fox 10 News!

We had our annual “Great Turkey Giveaway” and someone posted it on Craigslist, where Fox got a hold of it and sent their cameras down for a quick segment that shows my pastor and friends (or, ahem, “church officials”) handing out the turkeys, as well as a quick chat with one of the lady’s that got a free turkey!

Quote Of the Day #3 - Happy Thanksgiving!

Filed under: News — admin @ 6:41 am

Happy Thanksgiving!“Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song.” - Psalm 95:2

Thanksgiving is a time to come before the Lord and in the presence of friends and family and to sincerely thank the Lord for all that we are blessed with. Even if it may not look like you are blessed due to your current circumstances, you can indeed find something to be thankful for, even if it’s the very fact that you are living in the United States where you have the right to live and worship how you want to.

And in addition to giving the Lord thanks the holiday is a day that’s set aside to share time, food and discussion with all your friends and family, which can be especially important if you have a big family that doesn’t see each other often. Take advantage of this time to simply let the stress of work and life go, and be blissfull and THANKFUL for your very breath of life and the things you do have. Most importantly of all, be positive on what is a positive and encouraging day.

And check out the second Quote of the Day if you missed it.

Skillet Comatose Deluxe Edition announced! Release date is December 26th

Filed under: News — admin @ 4:26 pm

Skillet's album ComatoseSkillet has announced a Deluxe Edition of their best-selling rock album Comatose with a release date of December 26th, 2007.

The Comatose Deluxe Edition features are:

* 1 Brand new studio song called “Live Free”
* 5 Acoustic songs: Rebirthing, Yours to Hold, The Older I Get and Whispers in the Dark
* 3 music videos for Rebirthing, Whispers in the Dark and Looking for Angels
* A behind the scenes featurette on the making of Comatose
* Free wallpaper
* A free ringtone for the song “Falling Inside the Black”

This comes in the wake of Comatose’s third and fourth consecutive number one chart-topping singles: The Older I Get and Comatose, which both hit #1 in a row on Christian rock radio CHR (R&R/CRW) this week. These follow their previous two hit singles Rebirthing, which spent seven weeks at #1 on Christian rock radio and The Last Night.

Sales of Comatose have been Skillet’s best ever, with the record selling over a quarter of a million copies since it’s release on October 3rd, 2006, double that of Collide in half the time. Comatose also garnered the band a prestigious Grammy nomination.

Music Video of the Day #3 - Endure by Becoming the Archetype

Filed under: News — admin @ 10:06 pm

Becoming the Archetype's The Physics of FireThe third music video of the day is Endure by Becoming the Archetype off their last album (they have a new one in the works btw) The Physics of Fire. If you missed it see my previous Music Video of the Day for Flyleaf’s All Around Me.

Becoming the Archetype (BtA) is a Christian heavy metal band that uses lots of very cool instrumentals in their songs. Their sophomore album had a lot more polish than their debut album and a theme of the “Fire” that burns inside all of us (At the end it’s revealed to be Jesus Christ, and yes, spoken by name. A rare thing, even from Christian metal bands), and this theme plays throughout the entire record.

Check out the music video and the lyrics below it. Love the fire effects!

New With Faith or Flames song Burn It Down, band signed to label, lyrics for new song and FAQ

Filed under: News — admin @ 5:52 pm

With Faith or Flames Wallpaper
A new song from blackmetal band With Faith or Flames has been posted up on the With Faith or Flames myspace page and the title of the new track is “Burn It Down“. The new song is still in “demo” form and could likely change by the time it lands on the actual upcoming album that is in the making.

View lyrics for the new song below. I must say that while the new song is awesome, if they are talking about President George W. Bush then I’ll be upset. I definitely disagree with the sentiment of some that Bush has “taken away our rights”, BUT in honesty he could be talking about any dictator-type person or society, such as the lovely Hugo Chavez (yes that’s sarcasm), friend of all Hollywood liberals and yet someone who claims to be a holy man.

In other With Faith or Flames news the band has been signed to Stand & Deliver Records, which means that we should be getting a new album with new material soon! There’s also a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) about the band that you can read below the lyrics.
