a U2 Christmas!!

[U2isthebest]

If you go to http://www.u2sermons.blogspot.com/ you can read more about Granger Community Church that's using U2's songs as their central them for the Christmas season. I have posted a segment with Bono in the link below! They have a trailer on the website with a great recent interview with Bono, where he once again speaks about Jesus, Grace, and everything good! What a witness!!

I'm not sure! I'll contact Beth Maynard who has the blog and ask her.

I liked how he spoke of the humility of Jesus being born in poverty. That is something that I never quite grasped until I spent a year of my life in simple living. It is quite a remarkable thing. I recommend seeing The Nativity Story.

This looks like part of the interview or the series he did with Bill Hybels back in August.

I am in wonder of him on what a persepective he has given the "rock star" status. Some people think they have perspective but Bono knows what counts in the end!

I really want to see that movie, would you say it would be ok for my 11 and 7 year old? Its hard to tell, I don't want to frighten them.

I love that JC!! You're absolutely right! Do you know where I can see the interview(s) Bono did with Bill Hybels?

 

[U2isthebest]

I definitely want to see "The Nativity Story" too!

Hmm, good question. There wasn't any violence in it that I can remember. I think it should be okay!

I liked how he compared how celebrities are glorified over nurses, mothers, etc. I think some of the most beautiful work is done without pay by loving and dedicated volunteers. They are volunteers though, and they don't want the money for it. Still, I think it speaks a lot for our society when celebrities are idoled and respected, and our hard working volunteers go unnoticed.

Its rated PG...I guess if it turns out too scary or whatever we can always leave.

The scariest thing I remember is the women giving birth. OUCH!!! That was all I needed to see to make me decide that I will NOT have children.

Yep. My husband's parents are a church starter/pastor and home missions leader, respectively, and they got the DVD for us to watch yesterday. It was good, albeit nothing we haven't heard from Bono already, but probably some great stuff for "their crowd" to hear.

My favorite bits...

When Bono said something like "all prayers ARE answered, but sometimes the answer is no."

When Bono pointed out that the church has become too comfortable with itself and too good at avoiding challenge.
