Monday Challenge 6.27.22 – Cancel The Live Stream, Buzz Lightyear, Supreme Court
It’s just before 9:00 and I’m finally getting to this. A late Monday challenge still equals a Monday challenge!
Cancel the Live Stream
This article looks at technology, church live-streaming, etc. through the lense of technological choices. I may not agree on every point but thinking about our use of tech never hurts.
Question: How has tech changed your approach to church or worship?
Buzz Lightyear
The new Buzz Lightyear movie contains a scene portraying two women kissing. If you click on Part IV in this link, you can hear how one of the actors reacted to people who may not have been comfortable with that.
Question: How much of this surprises you? Why or why not?
The Supreme Court
In case you hadn’t heard, the Supreme Court made a ruling last Friday overturning Roe vs. Wade. This article from the Beacon Journal does a good job of portraying various perspectives in response to the ruling.
Question: How much do you care what the other side thinks?
