hey its a post

I’ve decided that I am horrible at writing a blog. When I have the most to say it seems like I am too busy to write anything. How do you other bloggers do it? I want to write and I love to write but it just doesn’t seem to happen on a regular basis. Anyways let me write my thoughts.

STEELERS WIN – Super Bowl XL was awesome because I am a Steelers fan. The game is way better when your favorite team is playing. I hate watching the game on Canadian TV because we miss the good commercials. But thanks to the internet that problem was solved. Fox Sports on their website updated the commercials after each break and made most of them available to watch. So after the first quarter I watched the good commercials on each commercial break. Take that Global TV. Here is the link to Fox’s Commercials http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/5309872

The best message in a commercial was this one - Careerbuilder.com, "Sales Aren't Up"
From fox
“Careerbuilder.com turned in some of the best commercials of last year's Super Bowl and, at least so far, this effort gets our nod for the funniest of this year's version. Once again, the poor, tortured employee is working for a bunch of monkeys. This time, they've got the sales graph turned upside down, so it appears as if business is booming, when in fact, the opposite is the case. For our money, the monkey lighting stogies with cash makes the ad.”
OK even Super Bowl ads are continuing narratives. For the people who watch football once a year at Super Bowl they still have a continuing story. Maybe we should take that approach for our Christmas and Easter services.
Back to the monkeys in the commercial when the guy points out that the chart is upside down and that sales are going down instead of up. He turns the chart up the right way. The partying monkeys confronted by the truth have a choice to make. One of the monkeys gets up and flips the chart back upside down and party on. The monkeys refused to acknowledge the truth and change.
Is there any parallel to Christianity here?
Jesus said – John 8:32Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."
If "know" in Bible terms means experience, not just know in our brain, then how to we help people “experience” the truth of Jesus Christ? The company of monkeys even if they do not acknowledge the truth will experience the truth in time, if they continue to act like sales are up. The company will collapse. How are we helping people experience Jesus before it is too late?
On the Jesus theme – check out these videos – disclaimer I do not endorse the historical accuracy of these videos and do not show these to people who think we should be only reading King James Version, they will be offended.
