Cardboard Testimonies

Tonight at our youth council meeting some people were talking about a powerful event that is taking place at some churches. It's called cardboard testimonies. They even did it at chapel at Harding this week. If you'd like to check it out go to you tube and type in "cardboard testimonies". Get your tissues out, it made me cry. But it was a really interesting way to see how you can overcome sin and meet some people with the same struggles you may be facing. I'm going back to watch some more, just wanted to pass this along. :)

Allowance or no allowance that is the question

Hey friends, I'm asking for your help. Rob and I have talked about it and aren't sure how we feel about allowances. When he was growing up he did not get one. My parents would give me money sometimes, but not every week. We don't give money for report cards or other achievements, but I think it would be fun for my kids to have money of their own sometimes. So what do you think? One friend is considering giving a small amount for each AR book read for school. But I'm just not sure. So give me your opinions please.
