Ya know that way if I think of something clever to say 3 hours later but have already posted once I can just go back and add to it instead of making a new post.

]]> Is TV evil?  tag:shaungroves.com,2007:forums/viewthread/.229 2007-11-28T16:39:44Z Cali Amy I decided to bring this question for discussion over here, so as not to derail any more shlog posts!

I confess....I like to watch tv.  I’ve definitely lived without watching tv.  I definitely know that there’s some bad bad stuff on tv.  I know that it can be used as a propaganda tool and “influence” thinking.
I also think, though, that just because there are shows like that, it doesn’t mean tv itself is evil.  I think scripted television shows can be an art form.  I think that television shows can be delightful, thought provoking, inspiring and informative.

I think the same things about music.  And fiction.  And films. 

So while I don’t think someone should spend 24 hours a week watching tv (unless I guess, they’re a television critic), I don’t think tv is evil.  I think like those other things I mentioned, it can be used for both good or evil.

Am I wrong?

]]> Shlogcast Episode 3: Brant Hansen tag:shaungroves.com,2007:forums/viewthread/.218 2007-10-08T05:01:24Z shaunfan Shaun has outdone himself and it was worth the 3 month wait for episode 3.  Please listen to this shlogcast and let’s all chime in and support Shaun (and Brant) in their honesty and fields of mission work.

I am so glad that you both do the work that you do and I sincerely thank you both for sharing and relating to us as “fans”.  Keep the Faith and God Bless!

]]> Shlogcast volume 3?  Me vs. Amy Grant part 2?  tag:shaungroves.com,2007:forums/viewthread/.208 2007-08-29T13:51:08Z shaunfan Okay, I’m in big time Shlogcast withdrawal.  If Shaun is going for less is more, it’s working.  Since Shlogcast volume 2, Amy Grant has cranked out 3 podcasts (20 minutes each) where she is shamelessly self-promoting her entire music catalog being available in digital format for the first time ever for the low, low price of something like $79.99.  If it includes the autographed Amy Grant “El Shaddai” edition 80 GB video iPod, I’m in, unless Shaun can match Amy’s 3rd podcast which will give me something to do instead of listening to Amy saying (gasp) when she was 15 her first song “Mountain Man” included the line “not having to sleep alone anymore”.  Pretty juicy stuff, I don’t know if Shaun is up to the challenge.

]]> Quotes tag:shaungroves.com,2006:forums/viewthread/.54 2006-12-15T10:11:22Z Shaun Groves Today on SHLOG I shared some quotes I found that have helped me feel normal about wrestling with scripture and have inspired me to keep at it.  This got me thinking about the power that other people’s words have over how we think, and how many great quotes have kept me on course or made me change course completely - or at least were part of that process.

What quotes have had an impact on you?

]]> The New Shlog tag:shaungroves.com,2006:forums/viewthread/.18 2006-12-07T10:19:48Z Shaun Groves This is the scary part: Asking you to tell me what you really think of the new Shlog.  Be honest.  You won’t hurt my feelings.  Is there something we messed up on?  Something you’d like to see that you don’t?  How can we make Shlog better for you?

]]> Abuse tag:shaungroves.com,2007:forums/viewthread/.75 2007-01-11T13:27:09Z Shaun Groves Where can someone in your community go when they’re being abused?  I don’t know of any organizations or programs that help in these situations in the Nashville area unless kids are involved.  I’m sure they exist, I just don’t know about them?  What are they even called?  I don’t even know what to Google?

]]> Shlogcast Episode 2: Brian and Don tag:shaungroves.com,2007:forums/viewthread/.189 2007-07-12T19:03:26Z shaunfan Thanks for posting the 2nd episode of Shlogcast on iTunes.  Sounds great and that was a great follow-up podcast on the inner workings of the songwriting business.  “She Don’t Know It Yet” is a great outcome of your session.  Great information and I’m excited to hear someone record your song.
