09/02/09--17:00: Levite Praise by Dr. Cheryl Wilson-Bridges - Sep 03,2009 (chan 2921994)

Dr. Cheryl Wilson-Bridges Delivers Powerful First Writing Entitled Levite Praise: God’s Biblical Design for Praise and Worship Creation House Publication Takes The Praise & Worship Lover On An Inspiring Biblical Journey What does God desire in our praise and worship? Dr. Cheryl Wilson-Bridges answers that provocative question in the pages of her brand new book, Levite Praise. Published by Creation House, the book views praise and worship from a uniquely biblical perspective as it delves through the Scripture searching the answers to three questions: 1) What does God desire? 2) What does God require; and 3) How should we aspire? Dr. Wilson-Bridges, minister of music at the Community Praise Center in Alexandria, VA and the recipient of a Master of Arts in Practical Theology and Worship and a Doctorate in Strategic Leadership, both from Regent University, rediscovers the purpose of praise and worship in Levite Praise. Although many agree that praise and worship plays a crucial role in Christian church services, few agree about the method. Levite Praise digs into the Scriptures to help worship leaders and worshipers develop a full understanding of what it means to direct and take part in God’s perfect model for praise and worship. ISBN: 978-1-59979-722-9 Website: www.LevitePraise.com Published by Creation House (Strang Communication); available at following Retail Outlets: Christian and Mainstream Retail Stores, and online at Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, BooksAMillion.com, Walmart.com and Target.com.

10/28/10--08:00: Halloween: What's a Christian to do? - Oct 28,2010 (chan 2921994)

This year, an estimated 148 million people will celebrate Halloween in the US, each of them spending an average of $66 on candy, costumes and decorations, according to the National Retail Federation. The number planning to participate has risen from 33% of consumers in 2009 to 40% in 2010. All told, Halloween sales are expected to reach nearly $6 billion -- a staggering amount, but still paltry compared to the $460 billion Christmas takes in. As growing sales indicate, Halloween has taken on greater prominence in the American culture. Retail stores dedicate entire aisles to the holiday, some erecting displays as early as June or July. We also see people decorating earlier in the year, with yards and porches donning everything from straw bails to jack-o-lanterns a month or more ahead of time. The growth in Halloween's popularity poses a challenge for the Christian: what do you do with this supposed "holiday?" Is Halloween a holiday, or "holy day," or is it a "hands-off" day? As John Macarthur, a well-known Christian preacher, writes, “Many Christians refuse to participate in Halloween. Some are wary of its pagan origins; others of its dark, ghoulish imagery; still others are concerned for the safety of their children. But other Christians choose to partake of the festivities, whether participating in school activities, neighborhood trick-or-treating, or a Halloween alternative at their church. “The question is, how should Christians respond to Halloween? Is it irresponsible for parents to let their children trick-or-treat? What about Christians who refuse any kind of celebration during the season--are they overreacting?” (http://www.gty.org/Resources/Articles/A123_Christians-and-Halloween) And finally, what does the Bible say, if anything, about how the Christian should approach this spooky pastime? We'll explore these issues, and more, in this Saltshaker episode.

07/22/11--12:00: Celebrations of the Christian Cult - Jul 22,2011 (chan 2921994)

Just like major retail stores in this country, American Christians will create a reason to celebrate. Now I know that this is a bit extreme, but I really want to get your attention. Does anyone in the church question and search for the reasons why we do what we do in the name of having good healthy christian fun or showing the love of Christ? Is what we do really what God wants? Are our accepted tactics to get people in merely a marketing technique that has proven to be inefficient lacking the long term results? Today I will look at the church calendar and the events we fill it with and examine them in light of the scriptures to see what is really good and acceptable.
