>One very important thing that I forgot to mention was that despite all the financial problems Terri and I had we never stopped tithing. On one occasion we actually tithed all the money we actually had at the time believing in our hearts that God would take care of us ... and He did. We never suffered. We always had food, shelter and the amenities that we needed.

I'm not going to lie, it was hard. Initially I was very reluctant to tithe at all. It took a lot of faith and trust in God to actually give the ten percent of our income. It was a challenge. A big challenge. Ultimately our actions were rewarded. True to His word God was faithful to us when we stepped out and were faithful to God.

In the clip I mention receiving a large sum of money at the exact moment we needed it. That is actually what happened. I can tell you however that the old saying is true, 'money comes and money goes'. The money God blessed us with was spent in the ways it was intended for and we now find ourselves living on faith once again. God is always teaching us about money and faith. Most importantly not to put our faith in money but to fully trust God. This is the real message. Again, we never suffer and our needs are always provided for.

There was a lot of content that didn't make it into the video. It started out with me trying to explain taking a leap of faith using scenes from Empire Strikes Back (Star Wars) and The Last Crusade (Indiana Jones). Perhaps its better for everybody that my ramblings ended up on the cutting room floor so to speak.

Just a Thought: Ungodly Fear | Pastor Steve Smothermon

Fear can cause us to do and think the craziest stuff. It can cause us to doubt God and ourselves, to think the worst instead of the best, to see only the negative instead of what is going on in our lives that is positive, and to be overly hard on ourselves.

Star Wars: Journal of the Whills

ANOTHER galaxy, another time. The Old Republic was the Republic of legend, greater than distance or time. No need to note where it was or whence it came, only to know that… it was the Republic. Once, under the wise rule of the Senate and the protection of the Jedi Knights, the Republic throve and grew. But as often happens when wealth and power pass beyond the admirable and attain the awesome, there appear those evil ones who have greed to match. So it was with the Republic at its height. Like the greatest of trees, able to withstand any external attack, the Republic rotted from within, though the danger was not visible from outside. Aided and abetted by restless, power-hungry individuals within the government and the massive organs of commerce, the ambitious Senator Palpatine caused himself to be elected President of the Republic. He promised to reunite the disaffected among the people and to restore the remembered glory of the Republic. Once secure in office, he declared...

When A Galaxy Far, Far Away Came To Your Town | What Was It Like To See Star Wars In 1977?

Written By Ken Hulsey A video from Looper that circulated a few years ago, rather accurately depicts just how popular and life-changing an experience seeing Star Wars back in 1977 actually was. Before I share that video, I want to share my very own experience. The first ever image that I ever saw from Star Wars appeared on a fellow classmate's school folder. It was a scene from the film that featured two Imperial Stormtroopers in combat. I didn't know anything about the movie; in fact, I didn't even know that the characters I was looking at were called Stormtroopers. In fact, I'm sure that I thought that they were supposed to be robots. It honestly didn't matter. From that one image, I knew that I had to see Star Wars. Those two Imperial Troopers were the coolest thing my ten-year-old eyes had ever seen!

Star Wars: Mark Hamill - Hollywood Foreign Press Association Interview

Mark Hamill Talks About His Experience Making Star Wars From a press conference of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association – By Yani Begakus Mark Hamill – With all the merchandising that’s going on, I really wish they would publish the original screenplay for STAR WARS. It is so thick with ideas – more descriptions and more of everything than was in the movie. There just wasn’t time to get it all in. Yes, it is very simple, and people say there is no storyline – just bad guys chasing you because you have something they want. On one level, that’s true; on another level…you know, even though I am ostensibly the hero, George Lucas has given me a menagerie of supporting creatures – animal, vegetable, and mineral – and everybody’s working together. Men working with machines, working with rodents, working with whatever…I think it’s terrific.
