Leaping While Praying. Is it OK?

Is it polite to dance while one prays? What about if you can't *help* it?!

Good people, this is a day many of us have prayed for. Prayed for years. We can be forgiven for dancing, I think. I learned today that the Star DVD has been picked up by WalMart, Target, Best Buy, Circuit City, Amazon and other big-time retailers for this Christmas season! I am beside myself with joy and wonder. The Lord's hand is with us, my praying friends!

This is a critical time for the DVD, because, in truth, these retailers do not know what they have. Mpower Pictures will be working to help them understand, so that the DVD will get the chance it needs. But, as you would expect from me by now, I BELIEVE OUR PRAYERS ARE THE KEY. I believe the Lord will respond to OUR PRAYERS to carry the DVD out into the world. I have seen it too many times to believe anything else. I KNOW He hears us. And so, I will lead us in prayer in a moment. But first, here is something PHYSICAL you can do.

The DVD will not be available for sales until October 23, but you can order it now. Many major retailers already have it available on the web for preorder. And great news: the price is now *very*affordable*. Our distributor selected a suggested retail price of $15, which means that the discount chains will offer it for even less.

Buyers who work at the chains have taken the first step. They've chosen to stock the title. But now they are making the tough decision of how many discs to order for Christmas. So, here's what you can do. If you have ever thought about giving the Star DVD for Christmas, make this the year you do it! If you've thought about buying multiple copies for friends, family, your church or club, now the pricing allows you to go for it!

Please consider preordering the DVD from one or more of the links below. If you're able, place your orders RIGHT NOW, because the chains are deciding RIGHT NOW how many to order. They're all within a few cents of each other on price, so that may not be critical. But imagine how the Lord could use a surge of preorders! It will tell these organizations that the Star DVD is different. Perhaps they will even recognize the hand of God at work!

If you have time, please join me in dance, I mean prayer:

"Lord, we dance! Lord, we rejoice! We have been here talking to you about this project for so many months and years. We have seen you continue to act. We have thrilled to be part of what you are doing. And now you're moving the Star into mainstream retail! Lord, do it in a way that shows your power. Move the DVD in a way that is simply astonishing. Do it so that everyone can see that it is YOUR project. Father, use this DVD to make your name great among the people of the world! Always for you glory, Lord! Go, Father, Go! We ask these things in the name of our precious savior, amen!

Rick
