I think this cat’s name is “Lucky”

This is a great toy that families can make for just a few dollars in parts. It will take grown-ups and kids because there is cutting involved.

It shoots tiny marshmallows. It is a fun and safe toy and we have complete instructions for you.

Here’s a simple question. Do the lines in this picture all go straight or do they curve around to make a bulge in the middle?

The lines in the picture are straight lines. Hard to believe isn’t it? But take a straight edge like a piece of paper and hold it up to your computer monitor and see.

It looks for sure like the lines bulge in the middle but they don’t.

It has something to do with the little squares inside the bigger squares and the way it is shaped. I don’t really know exactly why it looks like the lines curve. And like you probably did, the first time I saw it I thought they must really curve. Even after I put a straight edge up to my computer monitor I thought, “The lines must be curving a little.” But they are not curving at all.

Double and triple check your straight edge and you will see just like I did that the lines are all straight.

There is a way that seems right to a man,
but in the end it leads to death.

Proverbs 14:12 (NIV)

Be sure that you are following God’s way and you will never go wrong.

Looking at the stars help us to remember how huge and powerful God is. One of the best ways to start your prayers is just to spend some time praising God for how awesome he is.

Awesome is a word that is overused these days. Getting a new game or a trip to the movies makes us say it is “awesome” but the word really means something that fills us with awe.

Have you ever looked at something that was sooooo cool you just didn’t have words to describe it. Maybe a mountain when you were camping, or a starry night when you were out in the country away from city light, or a waterfall, or your trip to the Grand Canyon or…well, you get the idea.

The kind of thing that makes your jaw drop and you just say, “awe………”

That is what awesome really means.

So when you start your prayers spend some time just thanking God for his awesome-ness and praising Him because He is awesome.

I like to look at pictures like this one to remind me that God created a great big universe. He is awesome.

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.

Genesis 1:1-3 (NIV)

Pirate sketch just for fun. So swash your buckles or buckle your swashes you scurvy dog. Swab the deck and batten down the main jib. Thars a storm a-brewing out on the boundin’ main.

Hey, I went to Dominica a few times to visit a missionary. That is the island where most of the pirates in the “Spanish Main” stopped first when they came from Europe and the the last stop before they set sail back to Europe.

It is not as developed for tourism as some of the other Caribbean Islands. Here’s a little known fact. The Carib Indians (for whom the Caribbean is named) have their last know settlement on Dominica.

Dominica is different than the Dominican Republic. You’d have to look on a map. Dominica is WAY farther south than the Dominican Republic.

Parts of the Walt Disney movie “Pirates of the Caribbean” was filmed on Dominica. Just the jungle parts not the beach parts.

Ahoy matey.

In II Kings 24:23-25 it tells about a time forty-two young people from the town of Bethel were killed by two bears because they were being disrespectful.

This gang of brats was no match for a couple of ferocious bears. I wouldn’t want a bear like this one mad at me. How about you?

Makes you kind of think doesn’t it? It is important to be respectful and never be mean to anyone especially older people. Also, hanging around with a bad crowd can get people into a lot of trouble.

I bet those forty-two kids thought they were being cool. If those mean kids were around today where do you think they would hang out: the mall, school, the park, the basketball court?

I’m glad that today people are not mauled by bears when they are disrespectful or mean.

That really is Weird and Gross.

Welcome back to many of our returning friends from the old ChurchFun.com. We have been off-line for about three years and have undergone a lot of changes. But now we are back.

You will notice that ChurchFun.com has changed. One of the biggest changes is the cartoons. I will try to update the cartoon at least once a week. The key word is try.

But some of the things you don’t see that are going on behind the scenes is that ChurchFun.com is now done completely by our family.

We will have fun stuff to do and will be updating a lot more often than we used to on the old ChurchFun.com. There should be something new to see or do just about every day so bookmark this page so you don’t miss a day.

Also, Professor QB is going to be playing a role in the new ChurchFun.com. Professor QB is a clown who likes to have fun but also has a Christian message to share. I think you will like him a lot.

I’m looking forward to this and I hope you are too.

In Him,

–Curt Gunz

(for the whole ChurchFun.com team)

Here are seven cute pictures of a kitten and a bird who have become friends. They don’t know that everyone expects them to be enemies so they are just being friends.

I bet you have some good friends. Will you do me a favor? Will you tell them about ChurchFun.com so that they can enjoy it to. Tell your friends at church, in your neighborhood, your brothers and sisters, cousins aunts and uncles.

Your Sunday School teacher may want to know about ChurchFun.com because there are free downloads that they can use in class.
Anyway. Enjoy these pictures.
