Following The Light By: Ed Young | - And once we ride on the back of the Lord, His word is a lamp unto our feet the Bible says, a light unto our path. We can discover our design, our purpose. Psalm 119:105, "Your word is a lamp to my feet" What does a lamp do? A lamp illuminates. Then it says, "and a light for my path."What does the light do? It penetrates. God, though, is not going to give us any more light until we step out in the light He"s already shown for us. Once we obey the known, then he"ll reveal to us the unknown. It"s ...

What I Learned From The--gasp!--word Of Faith Movement By: Aaron Taylor | - Perhaps you've heard of them. Televangelists with bouffant hairstyles and Rolex watches saying send me a dollar and God will give you a hundred, women with gaudy make-up, and the ever-famous "Be healed in the name of Jeeeee-sus" while pushing people to the ground. These are the excesses that come to mind when the average Christian thinks of the "Word of Faith" movement. I've been writing progressive evangelical articles for about a year now on the Sojourners website, but I think it's time for m ...

Hurray To Rick Warren For Denouncing Uganda's Anti-gay Law, But Where Are Other Christians? By: Aaron Taylor | - As a career missionary to Africa, I fear what would happen to me on judgment day if I didn't speak out against what is happening in Uganda right now in the name of Christ. I was in the middle of typing my monthly newsletter when I decided to check my e-mail. The subject line read, "Pastor Rick Warren condemns Uganda anti-homosexuality bill." Hurray for Rick Warren, but my question is where's everyone else? Christian Right leaders in the U.S. are constantly griping that the media portrays them ...

History Of The Infomercial By: Robert Melkonyan | - When television was first getting started many shows were actually created by their sponsors in order to have a medium to promote their products and services. The entertainment value of the show was secondary and the goal of selling a product or service was primary. However, the FCC eventually got involved and placed limits on how much advertising could actually take place within a television show.

This is for a myriad of reasons which will be discussed shortly. But first it's important to establish what exactly a donation based fundraiser is as no fundraising company will usually admit to running such an operation.
