The Chapmans...
As Steven, Mary Beth, and the rest of the Chapman family struggles through their loss, the media is taking notice.
Figured I'd pass along this info so you can make an effort to pray and watch. According to those close to Steven, each and every media outlet involved so far has been very receptive and understanding about the Chapmans' faith.
This is no easy thing - to talk through this tragedy - but we're hearing that both Steven and Mary Beth are holding fast to their faith and speaking honestly about what losing their child has done in their marriage, family and ministry.
Here are the programs and times:
August 6th - Extended interview with Robin Roberts of Good Morning America.
August 7th - Steven and Mary Beth on Larry King Live
August 13th - The Chapmans story featured in People Magazine.

On Seeing Batman...
A few thoughts running through my head after seeing The Dark Knight.
#1. Heath Ledger is captivating in this. Folks around me were laughing at all the Joker's antics, but I couldn't. It was dark and brilliant and completely scene-stealing.
#2. Most punk kids don't really know who Gary Oldman is. They do now. I agree with those out there saying it's sad that Oldman's getting overshadowed by Heath. They're definitely on two totally different levels, but I had forgotten how good that dude really is.
#3. Folks who text all the way through a movie baffle me.
#4. The movie did feel a bit long. I kept thinking we were at the end...but no! More fighting! More explosions!
#5. I knew Harvey Dent was a component, but had no idea how big a role he was gonna' play. Pretty cool addition to the storyline.
#6. Great plot twist at the end...smart sequel planning.
#7. Let's just face it...the best previews are always the ones that run before superhero movies. It's like GUY-MOVIE-TRAILER-SEQUENCE. The Watchmen...Eagle Eye...Terminator...Twilight...Righteous Kill. Any of you see any others?
Take a "stab" at the poll over on the right!
