Upcoming movie about Muslim Fraternities
A really interesting watch about the growing mesh of cultures we face and our role in it. Might be especially of interest to parents with university age children! Looking forward to the release Inshallah!

Youth and Unity
Very powerful. A young Muslim and a young Jew come together…and shatter many stereotypes.
Helping our Children at Mosque
Great tips for helping our kids at mosque. It’s from a ‘church’ perspective, but I’m sure we can make the necessary adjustments!

And this one…
“Because, going to church isn’t about us. And it never was.
Let me say that another way. Even if there is nothing *enjoyable* or *productive* about church anymore, it doesn’t matter one speck. We don’t do church to feel more relaxed, or to meet a special someone, or to feel holier, or more peaceful.
…
We go to church to show honor to God, and to obey Him, and to teach our children to do the same.”
