The Duggars

Anyone heard of the Duggar family? http://www.duggarfamily.com/ Jim Bob (yea, I know, Jim Bob sounds like a 300 lb. sweaty guy that wears a t-shirt 3 sizes too small and has 7 dogs under his porch — but this guys just the opposite, really!) and his wife Michelle Duggar have a reality TV series called 18 and Counting, named to account for their 18 children! No lie, they have 18, that is, until today. No they didn’t drop down to 17 because they lost track of one or two, instead, Michelle gave birth to their 19th! http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,580024,00.html My wife, son, daughter, and I caught an episode of their TV show recently. It was just one show but it was refreshing to see a Christian family on television who represented our faith so well. These people came across as like-able and seem to be a family who attracts people to Christ. Jim Bob ran for the U.S. Senate in 2006 but lost. There is talk of him running for President in 2012. The other day at church, at a prayer service led by Ben CoursonĀ http://www.bencourson.com/ we prayed for our culture, Hollywood, our leadership. It amazes me how I see so much love and good in the body of Christ all around me but on TV. The entertainment industry seems to pump out a fairly consistent negative representation of Christians. Perhaps the Duggars are a family who will help to turn that around.

Question: Should we be in prayer for Hollywood?

Question #2: Should Christians work in Hollywood?
