Feed The Hungry, Clothe the Naked, Compete
I am so excited that The SKF has offered this to our children! I am a homeschooling mother of 5 and see how vitally important it is for Bible to be part of their lives. This opportunity will help us engrave Him into their hearts! Before I could even finish asking our pastor for the opportunity to host a Local Competition at our church, he already told me "Yes!" Washington, D.C. had better get ready for 300 children ready to give the Power of our God as they speak the word and truth of God. D.C. won't know what hit them!

The Good Books
What Are The Good Books Of The Bible?
The simplest solution is to count up the good things in each book and subtract the bad. The result is the net good. Totaling cruelty, injustice, intolerance, family values, women, and homophobia provides the number of bad things, since the verses marked with these categories can be considered morally objectionable.
It was found that there are only three good books in the Bible: Ecclesiastes , Proverbs, and James. Two others that have a zero net goodness. The other 61 books are all more bad than good, having a negative net goodness.

Bigger Is Better
Size Matters
A little-known Brazilian farming town with sugar cane wealth is set to upstage Rio de Janeiro by erecting a statue of Christ that will eclipse its famous equivalent atop Rio's Corcovado mountain.
The Christ statue in Sertaozinho, northwest of Sao Paulo city, will be 187 feet tall, nearly 60 feet taller than its rival in Rio.
"Far from a pretense of grandeur, we're thinking about visibility," said Nerio Costa, mayor of the town 206 miles from Sao Paulo which hopes to inaugurate the statue at Easter.

Cheeto Jesus
What a Friend We Have in Cheeses
A couple of years ago, the youth director at Memorial Drive United Methodist Church in Houston was snacking in the church youth offices when he noticed an odd-shaped Cheeto. Upon further inspection, Steve Cragg determined he could see a familiar image of Jesus in the shape of the cheese curl.
One of the church youth named the item in question 'Cheesus.'
'Cheesus' has remained on a bookcase in Cragg's office since its discovery.

Aliens Are OK
Aliens Are OK
The Vatican's chief astronomer says that believing in aliens does not contradict faith in God.
The Rev. Jose Gabriel Funes, the Jesuit director of the Vatican Observatory, said that the vastness of the universe means it is possible there could be other forms of life outside Earth, even intelligent ones.
In an interview published Tuesday by Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore Romano, Funes said that such a notion "doesn't contradict our faith" because aliens would still be God's creatures.
