Gospels
"The gospels, then, are a form of ancient biography. When we study them, we walk through an ancient portrait gallery; the gospels are hung in the same hall as other ancient biographies-and we must study them with the same concentration upon their subject, to see the particular way each author tries to portray his understanding of Jesus. The gospels are Christology in narrative form, or less technically, the story of Jesus" - Richard A. Burridge Four Gospels, One Jesus

Finally here, Da Vinci Code Diet

So yesterday our small group went to see the Da Vinci Code...meh...I really have nothing to say more about the issue then already has been said...but what I did find interesting was when Jessica and I were buying candy at London Drugs, we spotted magazine Women's World that had in big red letters a caption..."Finally here, Da Vinci Code Diet" We laughed out loud and I mocked the magazine, but there was a sad truth behind the marketing of this diet, what ever is "hot-topic" sells even in ridiculous forms as a diet...Which of course didn't make the matters any better that when I was in Scott's Parables there was shelves and shelves of Da Vinci Code books correcting the fiction of Dan Brown...ridiculous!!!! Now only to find books refuting the work of James Bond, I can see it now: "seriously guys he's not a REAL agent...he actually does NOT have a license to kill...stay tuned as more Hollywood lies are revealed..." sigh... here is a link to the diet in case you want the mystery to be revealed....The Da Vinci Code Diet. My suggestion on how to loose weight in this part of the world would be too rude to type here...

Everything is Illuminated

Just finished watching one of the most superb movies I have ever seen. Now I am a bit biased as the whole story takes place in Ukraine my native home. As an immigrant it is easy for me to understand a longing for home, for the past that connects me to my motherland. Although my home is here in Canada, there is always a part of me that wishes nothing more but to go back to be there…just to walk the streets of my childhood. Saturday evening I watched Everything is Illuminated The story is about a young Jewish American man (played by Elijah Woods) who embarks on a journey to find the woman who saved his grandfather during World War II. But encounters much more, this was a powerful movie, of how history and where we come from has to do with everything that we are. Near its end there is a powerful quote: “Everything is illuminated in the light of the past, it is always along side of us, on the inside of us looking out…inside out.”
