Please help, is it GAGA or KAKA?
By: B.M.
 Music, Songs, Radio, Video Clips, Dancing, and rock and roll 
All of the above were created to entertain us. I love music and songs, and if GOD had granted me a good signing voice, I would have sang too… Does music suppose to entertain us, inspire us, or to make us feel good? I recently heard a crazy song performed by Lady Gaga… I have to be honest I had no clue who she is; until one day I read that she has 10 million Facebook “followers”. So Here are some of the lyrics from the song:-
I want your ugly
I want your disease
I want your everything
As long as it’s free …..
I want your psycho….
Move that b#$%* crazy
It is a good idea to read it again SLOOOWWLYY… do you think these lyrics desensitize us? This is the same lady has 10 million followers/fans on Facebook alone. This is sad. I wonder if someone walk up to her and say “I have a cold, do you want my cold or how about some STD?” What would be her reaction?

Life of Faith
By: H. H. Pope Shenouda III
 This book was written to explain to you the meaning of faith, its
stages and types and its importance in our lives and its greatness. St. Paul wrote, “Examine yourselves as to whether you are inthe faith.
Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves” (2 Cor.13:5).
Excerpts from the booklet…
Faith is not merely adopting a set of beliefs that you may say inthe “Creed”, but a way of life or adherence to that which leadsto life. To what benefit is believing in God without having arelationship with him, obeying and loving Him? In addition, what is the benefit of believing in eternity and in lifeafter death if one does not prepare for it by repentance, spiritualvigil, and loving God? And to what benefit is believing in virtues if one does not livethem? Therefore there is a big difference between theoretical faith which does not save the soul, and practical faith, the fruitsof which are evident in one's life.
May our life be built on a strong faith.
