It's Scandalous!

Okay, unless you've been living under a rock these days, you've all probably heard the latest buzz on the unauthorized biography of Tom Cruise, written by Britain's version of Kitty Kelly--Andrew Morton.

It's been on all the talk shows, scandal rags, and television gossip shows for weeks now. I caught a snippet on the Today Show this morning.

And, just in case you didn't know the latest dirt on THIS celebrity...



She checked herself out of mental health, lost permanent custody of her children, and her Dr. Phil special? Canceled.

My question is this...why do we care?

Don't we realize that we create this stuff? We create this kind of voyeuristic living and lifestyle for these people? If everyone who claimed to be a believer in Christ stopped watching and reading and buying, and just started praying...what a difference we'd make!

I mean, I was just as upset as any American mom when the scandal about Vanessa Hudgens (of High School Musical fame) hit the airwaves. And I was heartbroken when Jamie Lynn Spears announced she was pregnant at 16.

But it was even more heartbreaking to know that, without Christ in their lives...all of these so-called famous people will die and go to hell.

And isn't that more important??

Do we pray as much as we watch, read, and gossip?

Britney can one day get her kids back...Tom can leave Scientology, and Jamie Lynn's baby can have a hope and a future, but only if WE get off their backs and get on our knees.

With all the surveys done lately on who claims to be born again...we're a force to be reckoned with at the gates of hell...and we're too busy reading The Star and watching Entertainment Tonight.

So, I don't care about Tom Cruise's wacky or racy habits. I care about his soul. How about you?

Be blessed, and be praying. Develop a Hollywood hitlist...'cause if Steven Baldwin and the lead singer from Korn can be redeemed...Tom Cruise?? He's no challenge to God at all:-)
