Hi everyone!

I found a very interesting video on Google which I had to order from the US, but here you can see it for free.

The Final Events

(Just click the title ^)

Watch Bible prophecy come to life as this amazing 43-minute documentary unfolds the dramatic events of tomorrow.
Hosted by author and evangelist Pastor Doug Batchelor this stunning DVD features special effects along with a rich music soundtrack.

Here is the web-page if you want to study these things in more detail.

 

[LA-girl]

A welcome alternative to your ordinary Bible study!

I just discovered a great resource if you want to hear the Word of God.
This is an Mp3 Bible, an audio book where you can listen to the entire Bible performed as a "radiodrama" (among other things) -for FREE!
I was very excited to find this and just thought I'd share it with those who are interested.
P.S! You do not need an MP3 player as you can listen to it from your computer)

As I find it sometimes hard to find good christian songs, I just wanted to share a couple that I found just recently. (Keep in mind I live in Norway and we do not have any christian radio channels, so most of you have probably heard these before...)

This first one is called "Praise you in this storm" ..an encouraging song that reminds us that God is with us in times of trouble.

The second and last I chose simply because I found it beautiful, especially the message. "While You Were Sleeping"

 

[LA-girl]

A nice song from Tim Hughes...

"When the tears falls"

 

[LA-girl]

A few from Jeremy Camp:

This Man (acoustic)

Understand (acoustic)

My Desire (acoustic)

Wonderful Maker

One more from Casting Crowns:

Prodigal

Hi LA-girl! I wanted to tell you about this site: www.momentswithgod.com it has a flash presentation called, Interview with God in several languages that I thought you and other's would like, God bless and take care! P.S. maybe you know how to put the interview w/God on here, I have no idea about those things!

 

[LA-girl]

Hello Mary

Thanks a lot for your input. I had a look at the site you linked and there was even a norwegian version on there! Anyway as it is a flash-presentation I don't think it is possible to put it directly on here, but it is only a click away anyway for those who want to have a look. And I encourage everyone to do so as it was quite a beautiful presentation. Thanks again.

Sound of melodies

Beautiful Lord

Hi LA-girl, I really liked that one, "Tears of the saints". I may buy the cd later on, thanks for posting it, I had never heard of that group before. I will listen to the other 2 songs later today.
Have you heard of casting crowns? I really love most of their music especially, "Praise you in this storm" and "Does anybody hear her?" Take a listen when you can. Below is the link. I don't know how to put the music directly on like you do!

Take care! Thanks again! Oh, and thier new song, "East to west" is awesome too, it deals w/the way God forgives us.

Howdy! I am glad you liked the song which btw is my favourite too Both the lyrics and melody are one of its kind I think and the text means a lot to me and I am sure you and many christians like me are familar with the situation it speaks of.

About Casting Crowns, yup I have listened to them as well as you will see on my last page where I in fact put up a link to a few of their songs, including "Praise you in this storm" :wink: But thanks anyway! Have yet to hear out their new song though so thank you for the tip!

Hope you have a nice summer Mary. (I will go on a holiday to the U.S this year as well, late August, but I'm afraid it wont be your province this year either :? )

Hope you and your family are doing fine... Take care and God bless!
