The Unintentionally Christian Big Brother (& Karaoke)

I was reading through the BB (big brother) diary and noticed the following entry....

David feels he wasn't acting himself during the last week. Camilla gives Danielle the following piece of advice: "Be in the game, don't play the game."

Isn't it funny how, in an indirect, paraphrased kind of way, and without even possibly realising it, a housemate from this year's big brother has quoted the bible.

For all those people out there who think Big Brother is inappropriate and should not be aired and is a waste of time and space in the entertainment industry, fair enough but think how that simple statement could be used in a sermon/talk and at the same time reach out to a generation of lost people who have nothing better to do with their time than watch meaningless reality television....hmmmmm.....

But i don't suppose making oneself familiar with things that people relate to counts for much these days, right?

Wrong!

You're only ever going to get through to someone when you get beside them, on their level and talk about the things that are closest to their own hearts - even if it IS big brother, that's how you'd "preach it" to me anyway?! They won't have a bar of you otherwise?!

In other news, karaoke is going well, thank you! We've decided to spice things up a bit and have a theme every time we go to karaoke. This week (if you're planning on coming) will be an 80's night, dress as 80's as you possibly can and be prepared only to sing 80's music, nothing else and if i get some photos, i'll post 'em here so stay tuned folks!!!

Goodness me, what am i thinking, how i hate the era of the 80's, i'm ashamed to even be apart of it?! And to think i missed out on the 70's by 10 months?!

Ahhh....the things we do for fun?!

  • Yes, I remember from my Church days being told to

    'Be in the world but not of it'

    It's an interesting way of
    negotiating life.
