(begin with video clip from Frozen Elsa and Ana in the palace discussing it becoming like it was, ends with Ana being struck.) You ever find it difficult to believe? In the clip that we just watched Ana is trying to convince her sister the queen that everything will be all right and they can…
Yuck or Maybe Not
Tuesday was garbage day in our subdivision and as I drove to work I noticed how unsightly it was. There were green bags, blue bags, household rubbish and a toilet at the ends of the driveways lining Kingswood Drive. Most garbage days I don’t really notice how nasty it looks, it’s become normal. But it…
Let Go of Sin
(Clip from Frozen when Hans tells Ana he doesn't love her) Wow, that wasn’t where I thought that would go. Didn’t see that coming, through the movie Hans has been the dashing hero, wooing Princess Ana and exhibiting heartfelt concern for the Kingdom and people of Arendelle and now he is revealed as a cad. …
It Seems to Make Good Sense
It just seems to make good sense. Last Sunday Cornerstone decided to embark on another adventure. Over the past several months your leadership team has been investigating ways to reduce our annual $16,000.00 power bill. And this isn’t a new thing, from the first power bill we ever received we have been trying to make…
Let Go of Sinful Anger
Yoda said “Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.” And Yoda could have been talking about the movie Frozen. Elsa’s fear of losing her sister Ana, led to the explosion that you just saw which ultimately led to the entire kingdom falling…
. . . but doesn’t share well
It was bizarre. The other day I was working at the office annex (Tims), that wasn’t the bizarre part, when I noticed an older gentleman reading his morning newspaper. That wasn’t bizarre either, but after he finished each page he tore it in half and put it in a pile. That was bizarre. Most people…
Let go of Fear
Fear will be your enemy. And that statement seems to set the tone very early in the movie. If there seems to be one overriding emotion in the movie “Frozen” it is fear. The King and Queen are fearful for their daughters and so the girls are separated and grow up alone. Elsa is afraid…
Happy Thanksgiving
So, how was your Thanksgiving? We had a full house this year. Deborah and Stefan and the three girls were here along with our son Stephen. We did the traditional feast on Monday and will eat leftovers for a good part of the week. Thanksgiving was good, and we had a riot with the grandkids. …
Let Go of Self Love
A year ago the word Frozen referred to food that was in your freezer and “Let it Go” was something you told you four year old when you wanted them to release their grip on a toy or their sibling or when you were counselling someone over some hurt from the past. That all changed…
Love thy Neighbour and turn down the Music
“I called the cops on a church!” Well, that made my ears perk up. I was working on my message at a Tim’s in the city the other day when I heard those words. I wasn’t exactly eavesdropping up to that point, but that quickly changed. According to the story that I overheard, the gentlemen…
