Why Public Schools Should Teach the Bible

Mar 5, 2013Steve Sanchez24 CommentsRecomended, Salt

Did you watch the History Channel’s airing of The Bible? 13 million viewers did, so it may prove to be the largest audience of the year…. Here’s an article that I agree with written by the producers of that cable miniseries, Roma Downey and Mark Burnett. Do you agree with their conclusions? Have you ever

My Girls on ABC’s “Secret Millionaire”

Jul 7, 2012Steve Sanchez8 CommentsRecomended

On July 8 @ 8pm (PST) on ABC, all my girls will be on the show “Secret Millionaire.” Well, I hope they will all be on because none of us have seen the final footage yet…. This is not an evangelism outreach, but it does involve “doing good.” They are part of a program that

True Compassion for the Lost

Apr 12, 2012Steve Sanchez9 CommentsE-vangie VIDEO!, Recomended

I recently re-watched one of my favorite films, “The Apostle.” The scene that runs from 3:27-10:00 is one of the most heart-wrenching acts of evangelistic compassion I’ve ever experienced on film. Have you seen it? What did you think about it? Do you have this kind of heart for the lost? (Read more about this film below the video.) See the full movie by clicking here.

You may quibble with this man’s style of evangelism, but not with his commitment. Every time I’ve seen this scene it stirs me up to be more on-fire for God.

The reason I like this film so much is best explained by Robert Duvall who financed the 5 million dollar budget out of his own pocket when no studio at the time wanted to do a “religious” film. (It has since made nearly 20 million dollars.)

Want to reflect on the most important day in history…Hollywood-style. Here are some film recommendations from our friends at WORLD on Campus: Once upon a time Hollywood chose biblical material, portrayed it fairly faithfully, and often won Academy Awards for doing so. Those days may be gone, but even as we plan to fill baskets

The Gospel Focus of Charles Spurgeon, the People’s Preacher (and Rap Song!)

Mar 8, 2012Steve Sanchez6 CommentsRecomended, Video/Audio

***BONUS MATERIAL: “The Spurgeon Rap.” A friend just sent me a cool rap song about Charles Spurgeon. Listen to it here. ***

I am currently attending the Shepherds’ Conference, a three day intensive that is driven by accurate expository preaching. (Read my article on it from last year here.)

One of the books a friend bought for me is called “The Gospel Focus of Charles Spurgeon.” Guess what he talks about primarily? (See below the video for a sample of his emphasis.) I’m excited to start reading it.

In the mean time, here’s a great one hour documentary on Spurgeon called, “Charles Spurgeon: The People’s Preacher” that hits all the high points of his life. Save this link and watch it another day if you don’t have the time, but do watch it!

Here’s a sample taken from the book of what he said to sinners:

There are some in this place, who if they were labeled this morning as to where they are going, would have to be directed “to hell.”
