We work with teenagers everyday that are so longing for love and attention and will do anything for it. We are trying to show them that what they need is a relationship with Jesus. Pray for us please as we work with teens. <BR/>See our work at www.missionphotos.blogspont.comGrantham lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02387790078628520531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636139298576673779.post-34364899841372849942007-08-03T22:22:00.000-04:002007-08-03T22:22:00.000-04:00Hot topics, very cool.

And to add to the sadness, they're not the only ones. Clearly, this lifestyle (or at least the insecurities, sensual indulgences, and depravity) are a part of the lives of many of our youth.

And keeping in mind that Paris is 26 years old and still needing (and finding) parents to bail her out (no pun intended), I'm reminded all the more that the only "buy out" that could ever make a lasting (ETERNAL) impact in our lives is when Christ paid the price for our sins on the cross.<BR/>Blessings,<BR/>~Toni~Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636139298576673779.post-76634924012319944462007-08-01T10:58:00.000-04:002007-08-01T10:58:00.000-04:00God bless you sue!yes..my heart aches for these an...God bless you sue!<BR/><BR/>yes..my heart aches for these and many others. for children. for purpose. for freedom.Roohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09014829847475377261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636139298576673779.post-34495881748471650142007-08-01T08:54:00.000-04:002007-08-01T08:54:00.000-04:00I'm so thrilled by your responses.

I think that our prayers will be powerful. <BR/><BR/>I heard that Lindsay Lohans Dad had gone through Teen Challenge to overcome his drinking problem. He said that he wants Lindsay to go there- wouldn't that be awesome?!<BR/> <BR/>Teen Challenge is a wonderful- Bible filled program and she would be trained in the Bible truths and love of God. <BR/><BR/>I pray that she gets there!

Although we don't immerse ourselves in the culture by any means, my oldest loves the re-runs of Full House (as in the twins all grown up) and Lindsey's "Parent Trap". So far, she doesn't know what kinds of things they have gotten into...but it is so true that we need to keep the lines of communication open with our children about pop culture they see and poor role models. <BR/><BR/>And I loved the pretend talk show you all did...sounds hilarious! :)<BR/><BR/>Blessings!Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13932066100979969014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636139298576673779.post-56636915824742899812007-07-31T17:03:00.000-04:002007-07-31T17:03:00.000-04:00I DO!

I agree on the starlets in the news they NEED Jesus so much, they are looking for love in very dark places, not good.

She 'snorts' when she hears them described as role models. "Yeah...NEGATIVE role models, mom." Our sons are the same way about sports figures who make zillions and then end up blowing it with illegal drug use, DUI, dog-fighting, whatever. Having said all of this, of course, I realize that under the right circumstances, we are all susceptible to temptation.<BR/><BR/>Blessings...Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01978040420052714276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636139298576673779.post-90994030549719361932007-07-31T10:59:00.000-04:002007-07-31T10:59:00.000-04:00Wow, Sue!
