Bible Verse of the Day

    Psalm 100:1-3 (Holman Christian Standard Bible)

    1 Shout triumphantly to the LORD, all the earth. 2 Serve the LORD with gladness; come before Him with joyful songs.

    3 Acknowledge that the LORD is God. He made us, and we are His — His people, the sheep of His pasture.

Yep - it's a no-brainer ... God made us and we belong to Him. So we should serve Him gladly, without grousing about it.

      Gift Idea of the Day

        Polar Express
        Destined to become the It's A Wonderful Life for this generation, The Polar Express is a touching story about a boy who has started to "grow out of" his belief in Santa until one magical Christmas Eve, when he boards the train that takes him to the North Pole.

      Family Movie of the Day

        Nine Dog Christmas
        James Earl Jones and Olympic ice skater Scott Hamilton provide voices for this animated tale. Santa's reindeer have come down with the North Pole flu two days before Christmas. Buzz, the elf leader, thinks he's found the perfect replacements, but the fill-in reindeer turn out to be nine stray dogs in an old beat-up wagon!

      Holiday Tip of the Day

        My youngest son wrestles for his school and running is a significant part of his training. For Christmas, another item on his "wish list" is some running sun glasses. Not being a runner myself, I never realized that there are special glasses for runners, so I was thrilled to find the Top 10 Running Sun Glasses on our Guide to Running, Jesslyn Cummings', site. If you've got a runner in your life, this list can help you too. .... Top 10 Running Sun Glasses

      Recipe of the Day

        We're going shopping again tonight, and it's cold, so I need something quick, easy and warm to cook for dinner. Fiona Haynes, our Guide to Low Fat Cooking, has just the ticket. Low Fat Pea and Mint Soup is one of those "I'de have never believed it was so good until I tried it" recipes. It's filling, tasty and healthy to boot! Get the recipe.

      Saying Merry Christmas ...
