a family reunion

Posted in faith at 12:00 am by

Friends, it would seem we’ve been invited to a reunion of sorts. It sounds like a rip-roaring good time. The festivities will take place in Branson, MO.

Yep, you guessed it, Worldview Weekend is having a family reunion in none other than the vacation capital of Branson, Missouri. Sounds like a good time. Some of our good friends will be there. Here is a list of all of their biographies.

Here’s an excerpt from Kirk Cameron’s biography:

Kirk is best known as the lovable teen heartthrob Mike Seaver, of the award winning series Growing Pains. He entertained audiences worldwide as the charming troublemaker. He is also known to every Christian as “Buck Williams” from Left Behind: The Movie — based on the NY Times runaway best selling novels by Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins.

Somehow, I must have missed the ‘getting into heaven / being a Christian criteria’ of knowing the name ‘Buck Williams.’ (I’ve never read Left Behind.) No matter, this weekend should be the perfect opportunity to catch up on some (obviously) overlooked fine literature such as the Left Behind series. Perhaps, I’ll even catch a DVD of Kirk himself.

Better even yet, we’ll be able to have a weekend with Star Parker. You heard it right folks. A successful businesswoman of color! Best of all, it seems that they were able to find one who was willing to rally against the welfare state. (Because, after all, most people of color are lazy asses on welfare and are ruining Christianity.) Here’s an excerpt:

The stunning story of how Star Parker left her life of drugs, abortions, and welfare abuse to become a leading advocate for the family because of her transformation in Jesus Christ will challenge and inspire you. Star’s story reveals the power of Jesus Christ to change lives. Star’s story demonstrates how thousands of lives can be changed through one person that rejects the humanist worldview and puts into practice a Christian worldview…Star Parker’s personal transformation from welfare fraud to conservative Christian crusader has been chronicled by ABC’s 20/20; Rush Limbaugh; Readers Digest; Dr. James Dobson; The 700 Club; Dr. George Grant; the Washington Times; Christianity Today; Charisma, and World Magazine. Star has been a guest on The O’Reilly Factor…

Praise God. Someone who will speak out against the evils of caring for the poor. This world really is going to hell in a handbasket. We need people like Star Parker to set us straight. Furthermore, it’s fantastic to hear that people of color, who are all hopelessly mired in a world of drug addiction, alcoholism, welfare, and rampant sexual immorality can–with the grace of God and the economics of white people–be saved from their own devices.

Now friends, these are just a few of the all-star performers at Worldview Weekend’s family reunion. Whaddya say, everybody? Shall we pack up the LandRover and head out to Branson?

    You know, I got one of these invitations as well, and the first thing I thought was -

    Branson Hooters Bible Study!

    But, since Branson’s obviously too Christian a town for a Hooters, we may have to settle for the next best thing

    Here is another interesting quote from Kirk’s bio, “By the age of 8 he was so convinced there was no God that he laughed at those who thought there was”.

    What a shocking tale of an 8 yr. old athiest who became Christian after pondering the first bible story he had heard. I mean, all 8 yr olds have well thought out unassailable world views right? Praise God for this amazing convertion story.
