10 Clean Songs To Play At A Christian School Dance In my high school years I have some great memories of my school dances, but to be honest I have some not so great memories too when it came to some of the songs that were played. Music today has lost integrity and morality in many of the top hits on the radio. If you are part of the team figuring out what music to play for the students, please consider what messages you are giving them. “Call Me Maybe” by Carly Rae Jepsen is a good example of what not to play. Sure, it is very catchy and you can easily get lost in the “feel good” vibe of the song. But if you listen closely you hear lines like, “I trade my soul for a wish.” That’s a very bold and unwise decision. We all need to pay attention to what kids are listening to. Here are 10 clean songs that you can play at your Christian school dances! These are not all labeled as “Christian” but they are definitely ok to play at a dance! Jul 22, 2014

10 Good Christian Songs For The Broken Hearted Having your heart broken is very difficult to go through without Christ in your life. With Christ in your life it is easier to understand that He has the best plan laid out for you, not you. When we rest in his arms and understand that our broken heart can be healed through Him we will have much more joy and live freely in Him, in and through our pain as we are healed by Him.

10 Of The Greatest Female Movie Characters Of All Time There are countless female leading roles through film history. One reason I love films with strong female characters is because they depict woman empowerment.

Here are 10 of the greatest female movie characters of all time. Please note that many of these are from more recent films, but I would love to hear who your favorite female leads are. Jul 21, 2014

10 Christian Songs For Mission Trips There are two proven methods for having a successful mission trip: 1.) Putting your relationship with God as your number one priority 2.) Creating a playlist of mission trip tunes. As I’ve traveled I’ve been inclined to put together a playlist of songs to listen to as we have driven, flown, or even a playlist of songs to consider for a video recap of a mission trip. Most of the time my lists includes some clean “secular”songs, but this list will only include songs from those artists who have articulated their Christian faith in public. Jul 20, 2014

15 Powerful Quotes From Christian Sports Stars It’s always uplifting to see talented and successful athletes give God the glory. There have been many Christian sports stars that allow God to use them to profess their faith to millions of people. Running has been in my blood since I was little and I have always loved playing and trying new sports. As a child, there were many athletes I aspired to be, but became disappointed after learning how many misused their fame and fortune. Thankfully, there were and still are many Christian athletes who boldly defend and profess their faith. For them, playing professionally is not for selfish reasons – it’s about God using their talents for His greater purpose. Jul 19, 2014

Top 10 Newsboys Songs of All Time There are songs that compel me to pull my car over and cry out to God. There are other songs that drive me to my knees and pray. With the Newsboys music, I’m want to stand on the mountain top and make courageous proclamations at the top of my voice. It’s hard to listen to their pop/rock beat with lyrics of conviction and sit still. It usually begins with a toe tap leading to the head bobbing and eventually my hands get to raising in praise to God. Take a look at the 10 Newsboys Songs all of time, but it’s best to listen while you read especially if you’re having a difficult day. Jul 17, 2014
