We Keep Accountable Because We Love

Do you have one of those friends who tells you what you don't want to hear? Like the little angel sitting on your
shoulder pointing out to you why you shouldn't make whatever dumb decision you're about to make?

At one point in college, I was going through a bit of a rough time and as a result, I wasn't reading my Bible or praying – I was just going through the motions. One of my roommates called me on it. To this day, I can still hear her telling me that I needed to change – "Good Christian girls can get pregnant before they're married, pastors can have affairs and leave their families..." If you don't live for God daily, you can end up like that too…

Gideon

Have you ever watched A Bug's Life? There's a colony of ants who are being oppressed by a swarm of grasshoppers. Every year the ants try to prepare as much food as possible for the winter so that they can give a share to the grasshoppers and still have some of their own leftover. The next couple of chapters are all telling the story of Gideon. This first chapter of his story reminds me of the oppression the ants experienced in the movie.

I walk on the wild side, I laugh in the face of danger. Ha ha ha.

You ever play that movie game in the pool? you give the acronym for the movie title and every one else has to figure it out, race to you and make their guess? Well we did a Christmas song version of that for Sunday school. Without using any technological help, can you figure out the titles of these Christmas carols/songs?
