I have become very concerned over the fascination with the book and film Twilight, especially among “Christian teens”. Caryl Matrisciana offers a wonderful review and commentary on the Twilight phenomena. Here’s an excerpt:
It is deeply disturbing that Christians and youth leaders are undiscerning in biblical doctrine validating Christian youth to participate in vampirism, which is idol worship. Col 2:18-19 warns, “Do not let anyone who delights in….the worship of angels disqualify you for the prize. Such a person goes into great detail about what he has seen, and his unspiritual mind puffs him up with idle notions.”
Biblical warnings against tampering in occultism are replete…..
“There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, or one who practices witchcraft, or a soothsayer, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, or one who conjures spells, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead. For all who do these things are an abomination to the LORD.” (Deut.18:10-12)
Unfortunately, many churches and Christian organizations downplay the reality of the supernatural war being waged by “dead” spirits and neglect the reality of abusive spiritual warfare by demonic authorities. If only those who confess Jesus Christ as their Lord would learn to “abide” in His Spirit and “know” Him through HIS word then they would be better equipped to discern error from truth, and get involved in the “good fight” we are called to, and WARN against rather than encourage fads like Twilight.
Augustine once said, “If you believe what you like in the Gospels, and reject what you don’t like, it is not the Gospel you believe, but yourself.” What is Christian and what isn’t? Mike draws comparisons featuring audio and commentary on the inaugural prayers by Rick Warren and Joseph Lowery, as also the ridiculous behavior and ministry of Ed Young Jr. during an interview with Steven Colbert. Finally, you will hear sound biblical teaching from John MacArthur
After the move…and the unpacking, and a new assignment…and the unpacking….Mike presents a brand new program. Today he comments on issues such as McCain/Palin and calling Obama to account; also ….
A listener is New Zealand writes, “I personally think Christians are far too involved in trying to redeem the culture rather than proclaiming the Gospel to all the lost within the diverse cultures. It is people that are redeemed not cultures.It is people Jesus saves not cultures.” 
Mike welcomes James Bowman, Jr. as they discuss the definition, appeal, and value of Rap Music, specifically Chrsitian Rap Music. Is it a valid tool for ministry? How far is too far when it comes to style and substance? James shares from his vast experience in the Rap music industry to draw some clear definitions.
R. C. Sproul tells of the story of his letter to the best selling author of Lords of Discipline commending him on his style. The trend setting novelist replied from his flat in Rome informing Sproul that he had been the first Christian to compliment him on the novel. Raised in a fundamentalist home, this author told Sproul that the familiar circle from which he was raised now denounces him and proudly brands his literature satanic. The only time it seems that evangelicals get involved in main stream society is to register some complaint, some degree of hostility. And when our bright, energetic, talented thinkers, artists and workers go out into the world to fulfill their calling as a calling, they are often gunned down by the brethren for selling out to the world.
