On Bring Your Bible to School Day—happening this year on October 8, 2015— students across the nation will celebrate religious freedom and share God’s love with their friends. It’s an annual event for students sponsored by Focus on the Family. The event is designed to empower you as a student to express your belief in the truth of God’s Word–and to do so in a respectful way that demonstrates the love of Christ.

Participation is voluntary and student-directed—meaning it’s completely up to students, Christian clubs and youth groups to sign up online and then lead the activities in their school.

Tennessee Gun Store Offers Discount For Christians

vv7bqDP971qapkmyo1_500

KINGSTON, Tenn. (WVLT) — In the market for a gun? An East Tennessee store is offering a deal, as long as you’re a Christian. The owner of Frontier Firearms says the mass shooting in Oregon prompted the sale.

“If Christians are going to be targeted, we need to protect ourselves,” said Brant Williams, Owner of Frontier Firearms. “The best way to protect yourself is with the best weapon available, and that happens to be a handgun.”

Gun store owner Brant Williams is taking a state leader’s suggestion. Last week after the tragic shootings in Oregon, Lt. Governor Ron Ramsey encouraged Christians who are serious about their faith to think about getting a handgun carry permit.

“Ron Ramsey had a good point,” said Williams. “Christians need to arm up.”

He’s offering 5% off any new handgun if you say you’re a Christian.

“I don’t think it’s a matter or proving or disapproving,” said Williams. “It’s a matter of saying the words ‘I’m a Christian’ and you get the discount.”

  • My alma mater still sends mail to my dead dog thinking he’s a prospective student.
  • Jack in the Box no longer provides blue straws, which I thought were cool, now they just give you the regular nondescript clear kind.
  • My taste buds have been a bit nostalgic lately, and I’ve realized how much my food preference had changed since high school and college.  When I really wanted to eat badly, I’d get the Jack in the Box ultimate cheeseburger.  They used to air commercials about how ultimate it was because it only had meat, cheese, and bread.  I got one yesterday and now it has extra seasoning and mustard.  And now I can notice the meat texture is just kinda grody, like McDonalds, and nothing like you’d get at Five Guys, Whataburger, or Braums.
  • Somewhat similar, I used to get the grilled chicken muchaco at Taco Bueno all the time.  The last time I ordered it, it came with black beans inside of it and the chicken texture was like that of a yoga mat.
  • Mustard is one of my enemies, so are pickles, especially pickle juice that soaks into the bread of a burger or my Chick-fil-A sandwich.

Tickets go on sale this Monday, October 12th at 10:00 AM.  The last time they offered tickets for a tour, it sold out in eight minutes.  Here’s a YouTube video that offers more details.
  • Not too long ago I made a post about a glass bridge in China.  Now it has cracks after someone dropped a metal mug on it.  Officials state it’s still safe because only one of the three levels of glass is affected.  I’ll just take their word for it.
  • LOONCUP – The world’s first SMART menstrual cup. – The cup is reusable and has a built-in sensor that connects to an app by Bluetooth. During the user’s menstrual cycle, the app receives information about flow-rate, fluid color, how full the cup is, and a countdown timer to inform the user when the cup will need to be emptied.
