All My Sons

A good review for Calbaptist's All My Sons and according to Mark Wyatt, "powerful"(an off the record overheard quote). The Theater Department at California Baptist University has moved into a new age. Right away this can be seen in the set which is well done and brings the story alive as the actors unveil the story. Lee and Krista are bringing some amazing things to the program there. They add in talented students and stories arise with purpose. Krista began the show by talking about the content of the show, prefacing how there may be parts of the show that could be difficult. More importantly the story can move from being harmful to having a purpose. And that is what she focused in on about Joe and the other characters lives and how their purposes impacted their lives.
In todays world the language of the masses is stories but it seems as though it is hard to find meaning in the many stories that pass by not knowing what they are saying about life. I'm not saying every movie we watch should have some like note of preface but maybe this what stories are for, that their purpose is to have purpose. So we can find it helpful to know this as to not be harmed by random interactions without any thought of what were seeing. I think especially for children to know its not just harmless fun which is something the next generation needs to defend themselves. It is great to see that they are building this into the program.

compromise

to expose or make vulnerable to danger, suspicion, scandal, etc.; jeopardize: a military oversight that compromised the nation's defenses.

indecisive : characterized by indecision, as persons; irresolute; undecided.

these are two things that would not go well with an uncompromising faith that has a decided stance

two things i have in my character

i think they express themselves moreover in my relationships

i compromise my likes and dislikes for others dislikes and likes.

thats not making decisions but being in an undecided state.

following Christ requires a decided position - in those places where there is no decision for example on whether not to love someone then the decisiveness of the truth of Christ gets compromised

that is something i learned about myself: i am tempted to put people above christ

when moses struck the rock instead of speaking to it in Numbers 20 the Lord said " Because you have not believed Me, to treat Me as holy in the sight of the sons of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them" somewhere along the line they(addressed to Aaron also) thought they knew what they were doing... they did get the water.
God is so holy that even in our best moments of knowing what to do we still need to go to him
there is more to holiness than i have seen and thought about before

my ending thought is there may be smaller things in life that compromise belief in a Holy God
