Marty wrote something profound last weekend. (Yeah, dude, you now have me on record saying that. :~)
He wrote, “If a person is forfeiting their humanity to appease someone else, then there is no way a person can actually enjoy that. It has to break down the body and mind at some point.”
Forfeiting your humanity to appease someone. Those are exactly the right words to describe it. And I believe that in those situations, we are ultimately forfeiting our humanity to the devil. Much as that sounds like wacko-talk, I came to believe in the reality of evil forces years before I believed in a God.

I spent one decade submerged into a subculture which I didn’t even realize existed at the time. As I found myself escaping the subculture, I realized I was living life only in the “Christian subculture“.

I have three wonderful grandchildren, Aidan, age 9…Gannon, age 7…and Quinn, age 4. They live eighty miles from our home, in Alabama. The distance is far enough so that, to them, it is like taking a vacation to come to our house. All three children are gifted intellectually beyond their years, and in other areas, as well. To them, the world is one huge science lab, and they are constantly learning about things such as insects, reptiles, birds, geology, and botany. Their parents, my daughter and son-in-law, see to it that the children have many books in their home library, and reading is a daily delight at their house.

He works in the music industry and of course, has a vested interest in music and the thought that surrounds it. He asked a stimulating question: have we misplaced our “boundaries” when it comes to the entertainment “filters” that we use?
