From Tara

1. If you had to choose one show you would watch on TV, what show would it be and why?
This is THE hardest question...because I don't really know what's on TV. I would say Touched By An Angel, but I think that one's quit running, so I'll have to find another...and I can think of two right now that I would NOT choose. LOL! Maybe three (comedy shows that have a filthy focus, IMO)...I think I'll have to watch more TV sometime and get back to you on that.;-) Unless 60 Minutes counts...I've liked that each time I've watched it.

2. If you had the chance to share the gospel to only one country in your life time, which country would it be and why?
My own--the US. My reasons: I live in the country, speak the language, know the culture (as much as is reasonably possible, I think), know people in it.

3. If you could go back to any time period in history, which would it be and why?
World War II, I guess--because so many interesting people lived then and responded/reacted to things in different ways. I would loved to have "been there" (in that time, though I am not sure where geographically) to see how I would have responded.

4. When was the first time you understood who Jesus is? (I'm not directlly asking when you were saved, but when you actually understood who he is.)
That depends on what you mean by "Who He Is," but I was about two years old when I understood Him to be One Who died to save sinners, and One Who desired to take my life in His hands.

(Ok, this is going to be a touch question. Of course there is not a chance that this might happen. But I have thought about this question before and always wondered what people think about this one. =) You don't have to answer this one if you don't want to.
5. If God gave you a once in a life time offer to get a glimpse of heaven while you are alive, would you accept His offer? Why or why not?
Well, there might be the obvious disadvantage of being "spoiled" for the earth, but I think I would pick yes, because I think it would change my perspective for the better in so many ways--helping me stay focused better for the rest of my life (maybe?). Paul seemed to experience something like that, and I know it had a profound impact on him.

Tara's Revised Ones:

Sorry to do it in this order...I hate editing my entries.

3. OK, this will be a fun question. I know that you play the piano. So, who is your favorite composer? =)
It's true that I play the piano, but I'm not sure I can answer the composer question for the simple reason that I have not been exposed to a lot of classical music. However, I'm guessing that (from what I know right now) I'd have to pick Handel...because I LOVE Handel's "Messiah"!

4. When was the first time you heard about Jesus Christ? This is not meaning of when you were saved, but the actual time you heard his name. And when you heard his name and learned who he was, what was your reaction?
I know this will sound like a cop-out, but I don't remember the first time. Based on what I've seen of my parents, my guess is that they were talking to me about him before I was born (and pre-born babies begin to hear around the seventh month). I don't know what my reaction was exactly, but the ultimate result was that I've had the feeling of always having known that Jesus Christ is Lord of all, and (before wanting to be, then later being) Savior of my life.
