God’s Not Dead – Newsboys

A few weeks ago, the BF and I saw the movie God’s Not Dead. We watched it at his home. It was a nice low key date. We both love those. We also really enjoyed watching the movie. In fact, a few days later my daughter and I watched the movie and she loved it!

Take a look at the above clip. It’s just a small sampling of what you see throughout the movie. I enjoyed it immensely.

Imagine my surprise when I saw the Newsboys make an appearance in the movie. I told the BF that I’d attended the same university as Mike Tate, one of the band members.

Back then, he was a member of DC Talk. And so began my trip down memory lane as I told him stories of DC Talk, how I met them (Black Student Fellowship) and my interaction after that time. We both really loved this movie and it made us reflect on our own Christian walk and how it appears to others.

God tells us not to hide our light under a bushel (Matthew 5:15) but to expose it so it brings light to all within the house. Armed with this knowledge, I do my best to show by my daily walk that God is not Dead in my life and I’m not ashamed to share my testimony with the world. After all, God does tell us to go into the world and preach the gospel (Mark 16:15). You know something… that ‘world’ can be right outside our doorstep.

The human part of me, might say that it’s something I don’t have to do, share my religious beliefs with others… It’s interesting that people will say this, but not think anything about sharing their other interests with others. However, Gods word tells me a different story. Guess, who I’ll follow? It won’t be man…
