Shalom Y'all!

OK, we just got back from Pirates 3 and wow, were we shocked!!!

What did y'all think?

Would you take your family (children under 13) to see it? Why or why not?

Shalom SP,

Well, you know people have different tastes.

I'll tell you that we LOVED Pirates 1 and 2. We own both the DVDs and we took the whole family to see Pirates 3. It was a waste of good money. I am SOOOOOO disappointed! I was really looking forward to this movie and I thought it was awful.

I wouldn't recommend it for the under 13 crowd. The farther the movie went along, the less light-hearted it became and the more "deep" it became. I would say that it lost it's light-heartedness when one of the supporting characters was killed.

I also didn't like that the movie slipped farther into paganism. It lost its "fantasy" magic, IMO.

On the positive side, there was no on-screen sex, the bad language was nearly nill, and only a few scenes were gross but they were not gory with it. There is a strong theme of love, revenge, forgiveness and sacrifice. The movie did a good job playing out the lessons in this, I thought - it was quite noticeable when a key character realized the consequence of holding onto bitterness, seeing that [they] were heading on the same path, and feeling convicted on it. Another key player sacrificed to "save" another (and it was an emotional moment).

So, like with the rest of the world, you have to weigh the good and the bad and decide what it the best choice.

ok, i haven't seen it. i loved the first one, absolutely HATED the second one, and am genuinely afraid of wasting my time and money to see the third one.

i hated the second one because i thought the humour was forced... so i'm hoping someone who felt the same way about the 2nd one can tell me one good reason why i might like the third...

Waste of money, waste of time. The more movies I see, and that is not too many, the more I never want to go.

Shalom LadyC,

Sorry, I lied the 2nd one but HATED the 3rd one and I do think the humor was forced. It was a total waste of money and time, IMHO and DEFINITELY not appropriate for young children under 13.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
