Entertainment

For some reason, I like American Idol, but it took me long enough to warm up to the show — just started watching it regularly last season.

Tonight was the elimination segment, from 9 down to 8. They’ve been doing the music of Dolly Parton, which I thought I would not prefer, but wound up enjoying a lot of it very much.

For entertainment, a band played “This Little Light of Mine,” and Dolly sang “Jesus and Gravity.”

Unashamedly lifting up the name of Jesus on that show.

I have no clue as to the faith of the participants of this season, but hearing the spiritual songs made my heart very heavy with compassion for all of them, and Lord, please remind me to pray for them, too.
