Media Information

I've found a couple of neat websites I thought others might enjoy. If anyone reading this is familiar with them, we'd love to have your feedback!

I was searching for some movie reviews and discovered that 20th Century Fox has an entire division devoted to family films. (I may have been living under a rock to just be discovering this but what can I say? I live under a rock!) They call it FoxFaith. This site provides information and reviews about Christian films and family films. They also give information about theatres and retailers where these films can be located and there is even a film club you can join for free. I don't know what all it provides but I've signed up and am happily awaiting my information and new member kit! The site is http://www.foxfaith.com.

Another cool site I found is BREATHEcast. This site provides all the information you could ever want about contemporary Christian artists in the music world. I'm so happy to find this site at http://www.breathecast.com because my family members are always sharing about different groups and artists and since I do not live with my iPod permanently attached, I never have a clue who they are talking about. I tend to know the song....may even sing along at the top of my lungs....but I may not necessarily know who sang it. Once again, I'm comfy under my rock! The site also has a news section that provides information outside of the music world which is also interesting and entertaining.

One last bit of good news I'd like to share. According to the news section of BREATHEcast, a recent study of box office sales from 1998-2006 indicated that films with a Christian worldview performed better than those of a more secular and inappropriate nature. You can read the article by clicking this link: http://www.breathecast.com/Christian.Music.News-Study:.Christian.Flicks.Earn.More.than.those.with.Sex,.Obscenities/10_1529.htm. I'm happily surprised and hope you are too :)
