The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry...a Christian film



As many of you know I am a supporter of the upcoming Five & Two film, The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry. I had the personal privilege of viewing one of the first uncut versions of the film , which is now being previewed across the nation, and can only tell you , it is a film worth waiting for. Please make every effort to get to the opening days of the film in September in theaters across the nation. As a field agent for the film, I would also like to invite you to please contact me if you know any individuals or churches interested in bringing this film to a theater near you. Without your help, this film will not be in a theater near you, as one of the visions of the film is to involve the Christian community in using this film as a media vehicle outreach tool. What an amazing opportunity Rich Christiano and Five & Two Films have brought us! We can have great family entertainment available to us and our families, and through this film, we can also have yet another means of encouraging people and bringing them real Hope.
Five & Two has just sent me this letter which I couldn't put into better words , nor add more needed info to. So again, please contact me as soon as possible so we can see this film at a theater near you!

The following is quoted and is an excerpt from my most recent letter from Five & Two:

Supporters of Christians Movies:

The tide is turning! By acting now you can help us share the truth of God's word and inspire your community for the Lord.

The results of our preview screenings have been incredible! The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry is turning hearts to our Risen Lord! Even with our limited number of advance screenings we've already had over 400 people respond to alter calls. We need your help to maximize the impact of this inspiring movie!

With over two months to go, this movie is already making waves. In fact, ABC News popular primetime program Nightline featured The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry in a recent story about the rising success of Christian movies.

Recently, the star of the recent hit Christian movie "Fireproof" Kirk Cameron said, "The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry moved me with its message of the weight of eternity and the difference one faithful man can make in the lives of many. I recommend this inspiring movie for any family to watch together."

Well-known Author/Speaker Josh McDowell says this movie is "loaded with excellent truths from God's Word."

We need you to partner with us and get this movie into your community. By sponsoring a theater your church will share in the revenue. The movie is scheduled to open in theaters on September 18th. You can view the trailer and scenes from the movie at www.SperryMovie.com.

We currently have over 150 groups already sponsoring this movie including churches like:
Bellevue Baptist (Memphis, TN)
Crossroads Assembly of God (Oklahoma City, OK)
First Baptist (West Monroe, LA)
The Rock Four Square (Fullerton, CA)
Idlewild Baptist (Tampa, FL)
First Baptist (Orlando, FL)
Hoffmantown Baptist (Albuquerque, NM)

Our goal is to play this movie in over 500 theaters nationwide in September and October and we need your help.

Doors are open for ministry, let's walk through them!

Five & Two Pictures

Here are just a couple of the many endorsements of what others are saying:

"You did a fabulous job in every aspect of this movie. This is a must watch film for every family and a must use film for every believer to take their neighbors, friends, etc. to in hopes they will find Christ"
-----Phil Newberry, Student Pastor, Bellevue Baptist Church, Memphis, TN

"The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry" is one of the best movies I have experienced. This film has a powerful and compelling message, and the acting and production is of high caliber."
-----Pastor Jim Chase, Forks Assembly of God, Forks, WA

"The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry is a heartwarming experience for the entire family.
-----Pat Boone, Actor

"The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry is one of the most touching films ever! It presents the gospel of Jesus Christ in a straight forward and inspiring manner. A must for everybody."
-----Chris Cambas, Pastor, Tampa Bay Christian Counseling Center, Tampa, FL

Aloha Friday!

Well, I just signed up for Aloha Friday. I think it started with Islandlife808 blog. I am under the weather with pneumonia right now, but trying to spend some blog time to cheer myself up. Thought Aloha Friday night do that! The point of the link love and Friday I beleive is to have a relaxed Friday and yet still do some blogging.
This is an exerpt from Aloha Friday Island Life blog...
"In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.

If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants!"

So, first thank you for stopping by. Second, my question to you is: How, please tell me how, I can get people to follow back on my site and on twitter???

I have made so many links to others as you can see... real links that I comment and network with. I send many people their way, and encourage visits to others. Yet, I have only 2 followers! I also have a good network at Twitter, but twitter put the cap on me at 2000 and I only have 1020 followers there. they want you to hit 2000 followers I guess before they lift the cap. It makes it difficult. Any comments or link love would be appreciated.

McLinky Blog Hop...~INTRODUCE YOUR BLOG!~

Well, I have no clue if I am introducing Pastor Brent Riggs Blog Hop Link Posts correctly but this posting is to try and do just that. As you can see I am not so techie and these days am having a pleuthora of questions in my own mind regarding my abilities as a website editor! But this one thing I do know, I have loads of content to share...spiritually as well as for use in this earthly life of ours! Due to serious illness, which Pastor Brent and his family can certainly understand, I am way behind in my reviews and postings. I am a CWAHM and GM..(grandmom!) And if you read my short profile on my blog have a blessed background in missions,... as church planter, missionary, secretary, Christian business owner,missions pilot(very short term), and now am serving the Lord however He leads stateside. Presently I am very happily just helping out as an independant agent for Five & Two productions and Rich Christiano for his upcoming movie, The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry.

We are looking for churches and individuals interested in promoting the gospel through promoting this great new Christian Film. You will be blessed when you see it! It is a great film! An inoperable spinal tumor sometimes takes me away from all I would like to be posting, and a poor website design also hinders me, but nonetheless, As many of you other bloggers, I go forward with a great vision! Blogging and social media has opened up a great new world of friends for many of us! My blogging originally started with a small and yet unfinished blog which is my heart, Project Hope...and then evolved into other blogs including this one which is In Search of the Best...in products and services, places, music, art and more! Thanks for taking the time to stop by and hope we get to know each other better in the days ahead.

Yanni Voices Tour...Opening night



Opening night for Yanni's Voices Tour was, just as he has continually said, "expect the unexpected!" This is a different Yanni...

Thanks to sponsors Yanni Voices, Disney, and One2OneNetwork, myself and 3 others were able to procure 4 incredible seats to Opening Night with Yanni Voices. We couldn't have asked for better seats, honestly. Thank you to our sponsors!
The show started a bit late... about 8:15. As with all opening night performances, there were a few minor glitches.(minor to us, but I am sure frustrating to the performers...as Yanni later thanked all of us South Floridians for our opening night patience.) Before I go any further, I highly recommend for you to go to the following link and learn about who Yanni is. (http://www.yanni.com/Music.aspx) This link brings you through many of the years and countries where he has performed amongst a great many cultures. And, until now, it has been all instrumental... That is the Yanni we have known and loved. But this is an "evolved" Yanni, as were his own words. In fact, if you want an in depth understanding of his music until now, please stop and take the time to watch the videos at the Voices Tour site. You will find the videos about the tour, under EXCLUSIVES, on the far left side of their website. Read about his 4 new VOICES, Nathan Pacheco, Ender Thomas, Chloe, and Leslie Mills. Nathan truly won most of our hearts that night. What a talented and gifted young man. His voice is incredible. He has a sweet and gentle spirit( yet POWERFUL voice!) that he brings with him to the Tour. Yanni on piano and Nathan's voice... well, let's just say we were truly mesmerized! Nathan himself is incredible. He had standing ovations throughout the night. Of course, we cannot forget the young girls heart throb, Ender Thomas... ladies were yelling out his name the moment he arrived on stage. I am sure that encouraged him. Ender had the audience standing, swaying, and dancing throughout the night to his music. He has a great voice...is a very gifted young man who has won his audiences. Both Ender and Nathan put their all in all into their music; it is so precisely clear and evident in its deliverance. Leslie and Chloe are both beautiful and talented performers. Chloe's voice is powerful and emotional. She has power in both her voice and her stage performance. Her voice is full and you can tell she puts her whole heart into it. I believe this is only the beginning for this young woman in her performance as a great musician. She has powerful stage presence. Leslie, is very different in her performance as much as her voice is different from Chloe. Leslie has more of a whisper in her voice, even though her voice is also very powerful. It is as if she is speaking to you beyond the words coming from her mouth. Leslie's voice somehow, tells a story... One we are just beginning to listen to... She is very in tune with Yanni, and you can tell she is very much woven into this new tapestry of music Yanni has given us.

Yanni and Ric Wake, his co-producer, have truly created a great work by joining these performers,...Nathan, Ender, Chloe, and Leslie. I was also impressed by the clear appreciation of these performers towards Yanni and the orchestra, this was evident through their actions and their own words. Yanni has done such an incredible job in bringing together musicians from so many parts of the world with amazing talents. They bond together and work in harmony, thus producing sounds that stir their audiences beyond expectations. The cellist, the violinists, the Paraguayan harpist, the drummers, guitarists, all make the tour what it is. I like what he said in one of his recent interviews... "the best of my life is now about to begin!"... It is evident with this new tour, that he not only is still a gifted musician , but is determined to help other musicians around the world to fulfill their dreams and aspirations for the future. Thank you Yanni, for bringing together this orchestra and these 4 young people for this tour.

As an editor, I have an obligation to my readers. I have waited a few days, as I wanted to have time to formulate how to express my review and opinion of the tour in the following manner as well. I believe that I need to share that I also feel that part of this tour program is not appropriate for those of conservative family values or with children. In the past, Yanni's tours have always been classical, instrumental, and appropriate for families, even though he has been classified many times as New Age World Music. that is the Yanni we have known. But this new tour brings with it, about half way through the show, a disturbing performance which opens with rings of fire in the background, and views on the staging of flowing sheets along with the fire. Right away, I am sure you get the picture of the scene they are trying to create in the mind. And then we have a time where I actually turned my head away, as did my guests, to avoid the erotic scenes and movements of Chloe and Leslie which totally surprised us and took us off guard. Chloe and Leslie were a bit more provocatively dressed than for other numbers, and then during their songs for this portion of the program, were climbing up on the piano and laying on top of it making extremely sensual movements. My guests told me this was not only surprising, but sad, and actually changed how they felt about this new tour. I have to say this was totally unnecessary. Without this addition of erotica to the tour program they would have received a total appreciation from even their conservative audiences across the country. I wanted to run up to Yanni and say "why? This was unnecessary. It was actually offensive to many of us, and showed lack of respect towards these precious young ladies, Chloe and Leslie. Yanni, you could cut that entire part of the tour out of the program and win all of our hearts!..Yanni, would you want your own daughter or granddaughter in the audience for that part of the program?"
So, enough said. My hope is that somehow, just somehow, Yanni's sponsors and PR people read this and take note... That they re-organize the program ( it isn't too late to do that Yanni!), so that it is appropriate for any age and culture to attend. That is the belief of many of us across the nation, and in particular, from some of your fellow "neighbors" here in South Florida! Yanni, we appreciate your work... please hear and listen to what we are sharing with you. And I would love to hear your response, which would let me know you heard.

There will be a Day-Jeremy Camp Devo and Music Video

As I shared when starting this blog, it is all about being In Search of the Best. Music from the heart can change lives I believe. We have been blessed throughout time to have been given many gifted young men and women, who follow their dreams and share their gifts with us in the art fields. As I heard this music vlog devotional by Jeremy Camp today, I was stirred to share it. I encourage you after listening, if you haven't already, search out and purchase his music. Jeremy is one of those gifted young men and women I have been talking about. His gift in the area of music has a purpose...not only to bless you, but to have you search your hearts. Your life will be touched.
ENJOY!

Nat'l Fndtn for Cancer Research for Cure-Chocolate!




When I saw this article from The Cancer Foundation about CHOCOLATE,( the photo is one of my own...my favorite Lindt Chocolate bars!!!), I knew I had to share it with all of you. Just one more reason why we can assuredly indulge in our beloved dark chocolate! Sometimes life throws us a curve ball (or two!), and we have to re-prioritize. That's the case with my life. So please don't forget to keep checking in to my blog. If you go over to the left hand side of the page, half way down in the sidebar, you will see the FOLLOW ME- please DO FOLLOW ME! I would love to hear your comments! I am busy behind the scenes frantically working to give you the best of the best as I am In Search of THE Best! I have several reviews in the works, and am working on my first giveaway. So, while you are yourself doing some searching, and today, if it's CHOCOLATE, I know you will love this article! ( so sit back, grab that favorite dark chocolate bar, just a few bites though, and preferably organic if you can, and indulge... it's for your health... of mind and body!)

"Chocolate dates back at least 4,000 years ago.  Chocolate is derived from the seed of the cocoa tree.  In fact, cocoa (from which chocolate is created) was referred to it as god's food in ancient Mayan text.  Through the years, chocolate has become a sweet indulgence for many.  And in moderation, dark chocolate may help reduce your risk of cancer.

Chocolate, a product of cocoa, contains potent levels of antioxidants, which can help prevent diseases and neutralize cell-damaging free radicals. In fact, the darker the chocolate, the better it is for you. Dark chocolate possess higher levels of antioxidants, fewer calories and less fat than its’ milk and white chocolate cousins. Plus, contrary to popular belief, chocolate is not super charged with caffeine. In fact, a small chocolate bar contains about the same amount of caffeine as a standard cup of coffee.
In addition, chocolate lovers report an instant gratifying sensation when eating chocolate. Studies show that endorphins are believed to be “feel good” neurotransmitters, which appear to be affected by dietary fat. So, eating chocolate may increase endorphins and lift your mood. Despite such positive findings, NFCR stresses that over consumption of chocolate is still considered unhealthily. Moderation is the key to enjoying chocolate and to reap the best benefits of chocolate."

Tired of the cold in the North? Palm Beach, FL awaits you!


With a growing recession, the Madoff fiasco, and unemployment looming for many, doesn't the South sound better and better? Florida is a buyers market right now. But if you want to get out of the cold from the North, then why not consider a Palm Beach rental? You can live right on or near to the ocean, walking distance or a short ride to all you need. And if you work from home all the better...sit your home office facing the sea and sun! I stumbled upon this great rental site for the Palm Beach area, why not give them a buzz if you consider it? The tempature has been in the 70's all week and maybe will reach 80! Balmy breezes daily await you... I can guarantee it! ( and no, I do not have any affiliation with them... have not even met Scott, Jeffrey, or Courtney. But, if you do rent from them, please pass my name on to them and let them know!..and me too, maybe we can lunch!) You'll love it in Palm Beach!


Just click here to be brought to their site!

A Few Goody GumDrops: Never Say Never to COSABELLA !

From time to time I will update my posts with special giveaway links that I believe are worth checking out. The first one I start with today is for the above Cosabella undergarment giveaway. ( I know it's an unusual giveaway to start off with, but I have yet to meet a woman who couldn't use some new "unmentionables"!) The blog owner Betsy is busy scouring the fashion pages for the latest trends to pass on to you, as you will see. Occasionally, a vendor gives her goodies for her readers, so then a blessed few get to enjoy them without a major dent in their wallets. This is the greatest advertising any manufacturer or store, or service can have....word of mouth advertising...creating a "buzz" about their product as is the verbage today. This kind of "buzz" has created a golden HIVE for todays social networking.

Love to hear from you!

Ladies Who Launch....and the continuing search for MASCARA.

As you know I have been on a journey searching for the best in MASCARA . Today I received a newsletter from a great site, Ladies Who Launch, that you should take a look at. The entire site is note worthy. The article, in particular, that I am referring to, is about Rachel Sarnoff from EcoStiletto, a Going Green site.
I like what the writer of this article states..."EcoStiletto doesn’t shill guilt, just information, showing you how to be a green goddess without sacrificing a smidge of style." So, the choice is up to us. There are a myriad of beauty products out there, each with their own little niche. Rachel speaks about why we might consider going green when searching for MASCARA. The search and the finding, depends on the individual preferences of the consumer. Our journey is not only to find the best products for our individual needs and desires, but it is a great learning process as well. Everything we do somehow affects everyone and everything around us. I , for one, am learning more and more about what that carbon footprint really means.
You can read the article here:

In Search of the Best!

Sorry, precious readers, it's been along time since I have updated this blog. As with each of us, life happens, and sometimes our desires in writing and editing need to take a back seat. So , without further adieu, I am hoping to start working on this blog on a regular basis. Please be patient though as I am doing a lot of research, and am a real novice in the website hosting and upkeep areas. This blog, (as I am) is a work in progress. I have a great vision and high hopes though, so it will be great to have any comments along the way in the form of encouragement or advice, or even some techie help,( especially in how to insert links!) ( for which I can offer editing, or even some other life skill mentoring).

Today I want to talk about MASCARA.

Aren't we all, IN SEARCH OF THE BEST, when it comes to MASCARA. It has been a frustrating journey for most of us, hasn't it? So , this weeks search for the best MASCARA, may last for a few weeks!
Over the years we have all tried so many . My latest MASCARA journey has taken me to one of our favorite cosmetic shops, ULTA. (http://www.ulta.com/ulta/index.jsp). Over the last month, I have purchased no less than 3 different MASCARA's...ranging from $15.00 to $22.00. Not one of them has brought satisfaction. Two were almost non-existent, so dry they were almost unnoticeable, and one smudged and was clumpy, and had a very very strong odor upon applying, within only a few moments of application. (and of course, they all were labelled, smudge and clump resistant.) Those BRANDS were PUR, (http://www.purminerals.com/Eyes ), BARE ESSENTUALS (http://www.bareescentuals.com/) , and TWO FACED. (http://www.toofaced.com/).
The other brands I have tried to no avail, have been L'oreal, Rimmel, Maybelline, ORIGINS(http://www.origins.com/)..this last brand I actually loved due to the ingredients list, but I tried it two times and both times it was dry and clumpy...Lancome..( have to admit haven't tried Lancome for quite awhile)...and Chanel. Years ago Chanel had the most incredible dry cake MASCARA. They eventually stopped production due to a shortage on the ingredients I was told.( sad day....) . Someone recently told me that there are a few good, organic, natural MASCARA's out there that I should give a try. I am willing, so hopefully I will be able to report on those too. In the meantime, while IN SEARCH OF THE BEST in MASCARA land goes on, send me your comments! I would love to hear what you have to say! I will get back to you with more reviews as I am IN SEARCH OF THE BEST!

Kitchen Product Review- Palm Peeler

As many of you who are avid fans of the kitchen know, a good cook never travels without her "tools".(forgive me guys, I mean "their" tools.) But, this time was an exception. As some of you know, I had to travel out of state to visit with my family who had just been in 3 accidents. And there just was no room in th suitcase for my kitchen tools. So, I begrudgingly removed them from my bag before scurrying off to the airport.
The first week in a kitchen not my own, I was not exactly a happy camper. So, one day when my granddaughter was out shopping she bought 2 new peelers to see if they would make us happier in the kitchen. I missed my trusty
OXO peeler that I have sworn by for years now. But, I have to tell you, I have found a new love... it is a palm peeler by CHEF'N! My granddaughter Sabrina bought one in Avocado color. From the first moment she brought it home, we have been wrestling for it, while busy at working preparing for a meal.
The peeler not only is one of the most comfortable I have ever used, but it is sharp and safe to use. The size and flexibility make it good for any size or gender hand. Though it seems for my hand, to be the most comfortable resting on my right middle finger, it is almost equally comfortable on the pointing finger as well. One of the other qualities that impressed me, was the slicing. It takes off the skin of whatever you're peeling, with only a minimal amount of skin, (stainless steel blade),thus leaving the flesh of the fruit or vegetable intact. This product definitely receives a thumbs up from my review! Thanks
Chef'n product developer for a great kitchen tool!
Please let me know when you have tried it out, what your comments are!
