TBOC: Special Announcement

My husband and I did not always agree on the idea of trusting God with our family size. It was a painful journey to this point and God has provide many different things to encourage us along the way. The one thing that had the biggest impact on our decision was a video put together by the Moore family, of Moore Family Films. If you haven't heard of this family's incredible ministry you should definitely head over to their website and check them out.

The video that we watched was Children are a Blessing. In this video there is so much information from the Bible, as well as information on the origins of the birth control pill and planned parenthood. I personally did not know a lot of the information that was provided and for my husband and I this video was life changing.

Here is the trailer for Children are a Blessing and below you will find the link to watch it free online. Also please consider purchasing the DVD, it's currently on sale for $10 and has 60 minutes worth of extra footage.

ARRANGED

I really enjoyed this movie! I watched it through Netflix. I just kind of stumbled upon it, but it was a really great find! There is one scene that shows one of the main characters at a party observing some bad behavior, it's brief, but I suggest parents watch it before letting their kids watch. According to the website the movie is loosely based on the life of the writer. If you watch it I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Here is the movie description from the website:

Two young women — one an Orthodox Jew, the other Muslim — meet and become friends as first-year teachers at a public school in Brooklyn. Over the course of the year they learn they share much in common, not least of which is that they are both going through arranged marriages.
