Where will your kids find their identity...who they are?
In having a mum or dad? In your love for them?
In having a family to share laughs, hurts, the mundane and the exceptional?
In the home you provide for them? In the way their siblings treat them?
In their achievements at school or sport? In the career they choose?
In the ministry they serve in?
If you answered ‘yes’ to any of these, you should see the Kendrick Brother’s latest film, Overcomer.
Here's my reflections and review
Many of us don’t realise it but we place our value in the roles we have, like being a mum or dad, the work we do, the accomplishments we make, the rapport we have, the recognition we’ve gained. It can creep up on us and shock us when something that defines us is swept away. We are left reeling and wondering ‘who am I now?’
Sometimes our value can come from lack of achievement…we feel worthless because we haven’t achieved. We set out to sail the seven seas but barely got out of the harbor before every boat we built sank.
If you lose a parent…you might ask the same question in a different way…’who am I now I don’t have a dad?’
Ok, hot topic…abortion.
Your kid might not be desperate to get inked, but the prevalence of tattoos these days means they are going to be on their radar. 
"You no good, your song’s no good and you in it for the money! So &*%$"
‘Four legs good, two legs bad’ is the mantra or slogan of the animal farm as they throw off their human oppressors. But as Orwell’s parody unfolds, it is the pigs who soon elevate themselves to elitist power and oppress their fellow animals for their own gain.
...freedom of speech, domestic abuse are just some of the subjects takin’ down in Skito’s new song.
When I was a kid I used to look forward to the weekends because Saturdays meant soccer matches in winter and cricket matches in summer.
There’ll be a bunch of people out there who may dimly remember when Anton’s Antic’s shows were just crazy Anton and Stephen the story-teller. Not that just having the two characters was a problem. The shows were still great, but I always wished we had a musical component to lift up the shows, give a transition, a break and take the message home that much further. 
Are you losing the battle as your precious plays with their ‘precious’?
