The reason why Girl Meets World will probably not be like Boy Meets World

Okay so lots of people (especially the ones that grew up in the 90s) are a little disappointed about Girl Meets World, the "sequel" series to Boy Meets World. I think the pilot was alright. It also looks just like the other shows they play on Disney Channel. I just do not know why people are surprised. And these are the reasons why:


  • Girl Meets World is reaching an entirely different audience than Boy Meets World. While kids usually act the same and enjoy some of the same things, this generation of kids would not watch the show if it was the exact replica of Boy Meets World. Disney would lose lots of money. These kids are 2010 kids, not 1990 kids. They like shows such as Austin and Ally, Dog with a Blog, and Jessie.
  • Shows that started in the 90s were completely different than shows these days. Honestly, the Nickelodeon shows were better than the Disney ones. I mean Salute Your Shorts, Are You Afraid of the Dark, Clarissa Explains it All, All That, and Boy Meets World were some of the best shows in the 90s. The kids these days would probably never watch them.
So the reason why it seems that this show is not going to be like the father's show is quite obvious. The show is catered to 2010 kids, not the adults who grew up in the 90s and have higher expectations for it. So 20-40 year olds, don't be so upset that Girl Meets World didn't live up to your expectations. Disney is not trying to cater to you. Plus, the TV shows you had as a child were exponentially better.

Dear God, Forgive every angry thought that comes to my mind. Forgive every petty action that I do and every petty word that comes out of my mouth. Heal the wounds that I have caused because of my anger and pettiness. Strip me of anger, aggravations, irritableness, anxiety, negative thoughts, actions and words. Help me to be slow to anger, slow to speak and quick to listen. Help me to be more gentle, kind and patient. Be with my friends and family who need healing and restoration. Bring us all back to you. Tame our tongues Lord. Grow our love for you longer, wider, deeper, taller, and stronger. Help us to love like you love. In Jesus’ name, Amen. “Don’t walk around with a chip on your shoulder, always spoiling for a fight. Don’t try to be like those who shoulder their way through life. Why be a bully? “Why not?” you say. Because GOD can’t stand twisted souls. It’s the straightforward who get his respect.” ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭3:30-32‬ ‭MSG‬‬ https://www.bible.com/bible/97/pro.3.30-32....

Summer busyness

Hey friends, This summer in NYC has been so amazing and so busy. We have had many mission teams and we have had the help of our summer interns. Right now, during this time of Ramadan when Muslims are seeking the truth, I ask that you pray that they would find and know Christ who is the way, the truth and the life and that they would know that no one can come to the Father except through Christ. I also ask that you pray for our students who are from other religious backgrounds too. Pray that they would know Christ and that we can disciple them.  Our summer VBS program in the parks and in our center has been extremely successful! So many children have come and are learning stories about Christ everyday! Please pray that they would continue to come to our program that we have during the summer as well! We are now starting an ESL classes that are only for Spanish speakers which will help us launch a small group Bible study for this group which will also help us to launch ou...

Anger Management

The last time I wrote was when my daughter was 7 months old!! Man has time flown by! She is now a couple of months over 2! She's sitting in my lap eating a popsicle now. I've learned so much from her and from God about myself. For awhile I had tried to find the healing of my heart my own way. I tried to make things fit that I knew weren't right and didn't align with God's word. I wanted my worth to be healed my own way. I kept comparing myself to others and that only brought me to a dark place. I still struggle with that and other wounds that I'm trusting God to heal now. Recently, a lesson I learned started with the children in my classroom who have struggled with appropriately dealing with their anger. I tell them to breathe and say a silly word like "goosefraba" while rubbing their earlobes (this strategy is used in Adam Sandler's movie anger management) because you seriously cannot stay mad while doing something so ridiculously goofy! Well...
