"Are Young, Religious Stars like Justin Bieber and Tim Tebow Making Christianity Cool? ...they believe in God, and they don't mind sharing. Over the weekend Justin Bieber made news with his a new tattoo — a large portrait of the face of Jesus Christ inked on his calf. Bieber's ink happened to dovetail with the Denver Broncos unlikely win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, the latest in a string un unlikely victories that their 24-year old quarterback, Tim Tebow, regularly and publicly thanks Jesus Christ for helping him achieve."

"...in his movie, Justin Bieber: Never Say Never, in which he is filmed praying before concerts. "People will walk away (from the film) knowing faith is very important to him," Bieber's manager, Scooter Braun, one of the movie's producers, told USA Today."
http://www.thestar.com/entertainment/mov...Here's the thing... Jesus Made Cool! As the awesome Creator, Jesus has blessed many with extraordinary talent and purpose... fact is God is love! I think it is great that celebs share their faith unashamedly, it is more than just a part of who we are... it is who we are! Whether they be UFC prodigies to virtuoso's... Christ isn't constrained to make only the popular perfect... some of the most incredible people are often times the least expected to be "awesome" Nick Vujicic is just such a man.
Like Bieber, Vujicic shares faith in the Creator... and it is not for the lack of talent and personal fortitude that has helped Nick... rather his weakness, the lack of limbs!
http://www.lifewithoutlimbs.org/IF by chance you were thinking you were disabled or just plain plain... think again! God started something in you that He plans to take an eternity to perfect... what you see in the mirror is merely the "seed" ...the true plant that may grow into an awesome tree, feeding many, may just be... yet to be discovered!
Truth is I have dissed Justin Bieber, and my kids are going to laugh at my pro-Bieber post... I'm not a "Belieber"... just givin props to someone who is not ashamed of my Savior! That makes us Bro's ...I support anyone who names the Name of Christ! Also it is rough standing for Jesus in the public... many people are just waiting to see you fall and be there to laugh. Guys like Bieber need prayer to stay, or get back on track...
we all do. I was touched by youthful Justin's innocence singing to Christ in one of his videos... pretty hard to keep that kind of faith in this world...
how are we doing? Pretty hard to grow in the dark...
GROW WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED!
...and ask the Creator to give you a glimpse of what He can do in your life. I gave up thousands of times... and have had to put up with tons of crap produced by my poor decisions, but now I look at it this way...
crap makes the best fertilizer !:]
"Belieber" or not, some people like to hear my story... it is a story of failure, loneliness, ignorance and just plain stupidity... somewhere my useless worthless life became priceless. Some how the crap in my life became valuable fertilizer! So don't judge your life based on what you did, or what you can do... give Jesus a chance and see what He can do... I may not be Justin Bieber, Tim Tebow or Nick Vujicic...
but I am way-cool to at least 6 people !:]
God... good on you!
