Catholic movies aren't easy to find. Roman Catholics, are, as a group, badly underserved by the mainstream filmmaking industry, which, as a matter of business necessity, needs to cater to the widest possible audience [meaning, frequently, the lowest common denominator]. Bob and Penny Lord, who preside over their own Arkansas-based Roman Catholic ministry, are different. They provide a full line of Catholic movies, for the faithful to watch and enjoy.

When are things going to change?

When are things going to change Lord?

When are things going to change?

Please, God,

Tell me

When are things going to change?

We ask this not only of God, we ask this of ourselves.

When are things going to change, please someone tell me, when are things going to change?

Folks, it seems that we as a world, we of our many diverse societies, are so busy asking this question, that we have failed in...

There was a well watched video some years ago which many (over 30yrs of age) will remember in which there was a captivating proclamation by an older man to his trainee in a certain sport: "Passion Overcomes Principle".

A vital lesson to be taken seriously with no explanation needed!

However, "passion" has become a very acceptable buzzword used throughout the western Christian world meaning "gripping, inner, powerful desire"etc.

Don't touch God's anointed: don't even think about it! That phrase was hammered into me early in my religious walk and it meant that the pastor (the title in my particular case) was a holy man, sacred, and high on the feeding chain. Now, that same phrase can mean watch out lest you become led down the wrong road, deceived into doing something against your will, or open yourself up to some moral dilemma(s).

One only need to read of the international (and especially Irish) headlines...

Our Fears

On December 21, 2012, The ancient Mayans and many other ancient civilizations have predicted the end of the world as we know it and the beginning of difficulties that modern humans have never seen before. War and disease on epic scales as well as fake vaccination efforts against diseases that are not only fabricated, but fabricated by the very governments that we thing are here to protect us. A good example of this is the swine flu pandemic presently sweeping the world....

" For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us leaving us an example that ye should follow his steps" (1Pet.2:21)

Does it take a leap of faith or just a step to believe in God?

We look at the above verse over and over again, and when asked what this means, many, if not most Christians, from Pastors on down to the laymen will say that this verse is telling us to walk, talk, and speak as Christ would. Then in...

If Paul's use of tongues does not mean glossolalia in the contemporary or Delphic sense, what does it mean? The Greek word simply means tongue, the instrument of speech. And by implication and common use at the time it was written, it referred to a foreign language or to foreign languages (plural). The Protestant Reformers believed that glossolalia (ecstatic and unintelligible speech) had stopped or ought to stop in the New Testament era, that the manifestation of the Holy Spirit among...

Internet Church

What is a church; simply put, it is a group of people. The Greek word ekklesia (called out) means exactly that, a group of people. In today's world we think of a church being a building, a simple structure but the building isn't called out, it isn't commanded to do something. A building can't sin; it can't feed the hungry or preach the word.  It's the people inside that are the church, however that building is viewed, it is the people inside that have created...

Historically, bold new things which changed man drew controversy and criticism. Cars, planes, internet, science, religions, were all controversial once.

It was said man would not be able to travel faster than a horse, as God had deemed it so. Man should not fly as God had not given man wings. The Earth did not revolve around the sun as God had made the Earth the centre of the universe. Those who proclaimed the contrary were heretics, sometimes put to death.

God never made...

Observe nature's systems and cycles: harmony and symmetry are features of the natural world. Everything appears to operate in rhythmic, regular cycles. The blooming of flowers, the behavior of cats, the flow of water, the seasons, children at play - all follow describable patterns. We experience and are part of a mutually dependent environment, a system. Order and purpose underlie this system.

Children, and even imaginative adults,...
