| My friend has forward this great info about an upcoming movie that tells the story of Jim Elliot, Nate Saint and the two other men who lost their lives as they tried to share Jesus with a violent tribe in Equador. Please check out the website, www.endofthespear.com.
There is a great film opening January 20th called "End of the Spear". It is a TRUE story about missionaries from WHEATON who went to the jungles of Equador, South America and end up getting murdered. It is a beautifully done piece of art. However, they don't have much money to spend on advertising, so we're trying to get the word out (I have not seen the movie). Please feel free to forward this email.
We want to support films like this at the box office THE FIRST WEEK they open. There are people working very hard trying to change what is coming out of Hollywood. Hollywood will listen if people go (ie The Passion)!
We're also trying to generate interest by just having people look at the website....www.endofthespear.com.
It is an amazing story. All of Chicagoland, and especially Wheaton, needs to support this movie!

| College = Going to college means leaving home and having the opportunity to experiment with independence without the obligation of working full-time to support oneself. College becomes a time in limbo -- a time to be away from home and yet not in the real world -- it is a peer driven culture which professors have to fight in order to get students to take learning seriously.......................Herbert Kole
College has become the non real world.
The real world =
-you get up
-you have responsibilities
-you interact with family
-you interact with real people
-you do hard labor
-you are held accountable for things
The fake world =
-4 years of prancing and dancing, self-indulgence and fun
-with no speculation or responsibilities
- while daddy flips the bill
.................Forbes Magazine
University = only one view of knowledge whilest there are multi-views of knowledge out
there.
But what is FAR more destructive than being in the real world..........is being in a Christian environment with people who have the veneer of Christianity but lack the power thereof--where everyone walks around with Christian talk but acts like the world.
