Soul Surfer is based on the true story of Bethany Hamilton from her book.

Bethany Hamilton is an American professional surfer who survived a 2003 shark attack in which her left arm was bitten off, but ultimately returned to surfing. Bethany was victorious in her return to professional surfing. She wrote about her experience in the 2004 autobiography Soul Surfer: A True Story of Faith, Family, and Fighting to Get Back on the Board. In April 2011, the feature film Soul Surfer was released.

Bethanys story is also told in the 2007 short subject documentary film Heart of a Soul Surfer, directed by Becky Baumgartner. Described as a "faith-based documentary," the film addresses her devout Christianity and the courage and faith in Jesus Christ in the aftermath of the shark attack, and follows her quest for spiritual meaning.

In this movie is Carrie Underwood, Kevin Sorbo, and other non Christians. These other actors and actresses said they had no problems reading and quoting the Bible on screen.

Soul Surfer is a movie that is Christian based and the whole family can watch. I give the movie 5 stars out of 5 stars.

Why is this notice posted here, simple David James was a member of this forum.

I watched brother David grow in Christ and he had an questions for me and I would imagine other brothers and sisters on the forum. When Jesus calls us home in the twinkling of an eye, I want to meet David. He will never feel pain in the house of the Lord, nor a tear of sadness. In fact all of us who are called home by Jesus will never feel sadness, pain, all we'll do is rejoice in our Lord Jesus Christ. Brother David I'm going to miss you.

Here Comes the (Rainbow) Fuzz: NYPD Unveiled Fabulous Pride Car 

For Pride, New York‘s Finest has one-upped last year’s headline-maker — the male police officer who danced while in uniform — by rolling out something bigger. Two and a half tons bigger, with 350 horsepower.

Unlike all the traditional blue striped vehicles in its fleet, New York City‘s police department has unveiled a rainbow-striped Ford Interceptor emblazoned with heart stickers that read “NYC Pride 2016,” and “Our ♥ goes out to Orlando” – all in rainbow colors, of course.

Patrol cars usually have the words “Courtesy Professionalism Respect” on their sides, but this model bears the slogan, “Pride Equality Peace.”

Orlando police tweeted their appreciation for the NYPD’s vehicle, which is expected to be seen at Pride festivities this weekend in Manhattan.

WNBC-TV reported that the department’s Gay Officers Action League posted a video of the SUV Thursday, showing that another slogan on the vehicle is, “NYPD out and proud.”

This is an abomination to me, cops now giving into the queer society. I was always taught growing up that all cops were neutral as fa r as homosexual behavior. To openly support the queer nation is a show of force against Christianity. I'm glad l don't live in New York City for surely God will punish those who support this queer society, we already know they are an abomination to the Lord.

As I sit here drinking my coffee, I have enjoyed reading from page 1 to here. It has brought back wonderful memories I'd forgotten. Yeah there is a lot of reading of fellowship, goofing off and worship to the King of kings, Lord of lords, our Lord Jesus Christ. I give thanks to Him everyday and at any given moment.

I started this thread off, because I was bored one day. This thread took on a life of its own shortly afterwards.

Your right as normal brother, but then God has always watched over His chosen people. Even when He punishes His chosen people, He still has His hand\eye on them.

I just finished my last cup of coffee for the nightvand am ready to lay down. I hope and pray those who are guest find what your looking for tonight. Just remember one thing, Jesus Loves You and wants yoi to be with Him.

All of the Glory goes to God.

AMEN!!!!!!!

And that is the whole truth and nothing but the truth brother!! 

Now that I have a fresh cup of coffee, I'll bring y'all up on the Cedar Fire.

The fire is now 51% contained and route 60 is open. Since the fire is still burning there will be extra law enforcement patrolling that stretch of route 60.  The extra cops ate to keep people out of the fire area and to keep"Lookie-loos" moving.

Thankfully I don't have to take my wife to Phoenix till next month to her MS doctor. Since her Jeep is down, till I can get a new engine control module ordered and installed. My Suburban will use to much gas so we won't go in Trip B, my Triumph Spitfire gets good gas mileage so we will go down in Fire. She enjoys riding in Fire anyway so its a no brainer.

Well I'm heading to the kitchen to pour myself another cup of coffee.

Brothers through God, anything is possible, as y'all know. If it can help cure disease's it will come because Jesus allowed it to happen. However knowing man they will take all the credit for the cures and still deny the Lord.

An update on this tree

"Methuselah"
Palm Grown From 2,000-Year-Old Seed Is a FatherTen years after sprouting from an ancient seed, the date palm is "a big boy now," a scientist says—"and yeah, he can make dates."

A male date palm tree named Methuselah that sprouted from a 2,000-year-old seed nearly a decade ago is thriving today, according to the Israeli researcher who is cultivating the historic plant.

The plant was sprouted in a laboratory in 2005, and when a National Geographic news story about the event resurfaced this week on the social media website Reddit, we decided to check in on Methuselah and see how it's doing.

There may be a end in sight for the Cedar Fire. Firefighters got the fire 42% contained, the weather cooperated making a different on the fire line. Only the the Lord could have made that happen so praise Him in the highest.

Normally I drink 1 a day, on occasions I may have 2 RC Colas. With this fire and all the stress, I've caught myself opening more then 2 cans. The Cedar Fire has been stressful for everyone in the area. Add the results from the hospital, that was no fun. I couldn't read the Catscan but I do know how to read X-Rays and my right shoulder is a mess.

Right now I don't care because I'm enjoying my last cup of coffee for the night.  Some reason coffee helps me to go to sleep.

[At 9 this evening the fire has grown to over 3,000 acres and no containment.]

Please pray for those fighting the Cedar Wildfire. In 4 hours it has burned 2,500 acres and the wind just gusted here at 15 MPH and more wind is expected over the next few days. A family friend is leaving Show Low right now. There is an evacuation order for those in Woodland Lake (1 mile) north of Lakeside and a 30 minute evacuation for Show Low, Lakeside and Pinetop. The fire is 7 miles from Show Low, Arizona as I type.

I will update this prayer request when information is available. Please pray for those fighting the Cedar Wildfire, evacuated, and those on pre-evacuation.

Edited to add:  At 9 this evening the fire has grown to over 3,000 acres and no containment.

I was thinking back when I saw this thread. Back in the 70's officials said we were heading into an ice age, well you can see how wrong they were back then. To me global warming is a farce, meant to line the pockets of All Gorey. Everyone should know, especially Christians, God is in control and He will always be in control.
