I hear some people saying it needs to be addressed more. I hear other people complaining that when it is addressed it doesn't really get to the heart of the issue.<BR/><BR/>I'd like to see more professional counselors offering articles in pop-culture magazines, etc., addressing the issue in a way that we can all relate... we need tools in how to help those who cross our path.<BR/><BR/>I know a teen who was deeply into cutting and has spent the last year in a rehabilitation program full time (out of state and all that). She seems to be doing much, much better.<BR/><BR/>Issues like this go deep. And I believe 'love' is at the center of it. But breaking through is sometimes as tough as bringing down the Jericho wall... and requires sometimes something just as miraculous!Dale Fincherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01731582817969852733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7288412825716153111.post-38914092427147840622008-03-05T16:40:00.000-08:002008-03-05T16:40:00.000-08:00Savannah, of course I know, Philip! :)Thanks for t...Savannah, of course I know, Philip! :)<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the good words and the practical implications. I'm encouraged your mother agreed to watch as well!<BR/><BR/>And the 'modern church' is simply made up of individuals who care about Jesus. We are doing our part. You are doing yours. Your mother is doing hers. Together we work to make a difference in the lives of those we love (and learn to love).<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the comment!Dale Fincherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01731582817969852733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7288412825716153111.post-53024733983777372262008-03-04T20:05:00.000-08:002008-03-04T20:05:00.000-08:00Hey Dale, I missed the first half, but the second ...Hey Dale, <BR/><BR/>I missed the first half, but the second half was good, I like hearing your passion and conviction of what you believe through your explanations. <BR/><BR/>And, you are right on with the idea of 'cutting', it's very much a problem in schools, and when I worked with Camfel, that was in our show, and it was a big problem to numerous schools to where the company had to make an edited version with that scene taken out, because the teachers and administrators want to believe it's not a problem in their schools, and they didn't want us 'introducing' the idea to the students. Yet, when we went and asked the students some of the biggest things they faced, cutting seemed to be at the top of the list.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7288412825716153111.post-10280752736651704192008-03-04T20:02:00.000-08:002008-03-04T20:02:00.000-08:00very good interview. it is really good to see your...very good interview. it is really good to see your work coming to life. my mother watched along with me and though she has heard about you through me and seen your book around the house she didn't know exactly what you and jonalyn were working toward. with a younger brother in 9th grade and a sister finishing up her freshman year of college she is always wondering about how the church can help these students. almost without fail anytime my fiance (philip kenney, i believe you know him...) comes over she corners him with questions about what to do or rants about the failure of the modern church... this was good for her to see and hear. i think it has opened her eyes a little to those who are out there to help the youth who are questioning...Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02317772644514709358noreply@blogger.com
