Being Famous and an Christian...hmmm

Can you be a actress and still be involve in the church?
Is my religion still more important than my career?
Am I am able sacrifice my salvation for my big break?
Will God accept all of my excuses for not be in church?


My head spins when I start to think about the possibility of be an actress and still being active in the church. God is my first priority and I do my best to ensure that whatever decision I make God will be pleased with it. It is important to me that I stay faithful in my spiritually beliefs, values and expectations. I respect the rules in my church because that is what makes us more discipline in the church. Many churches rules and expectations are different from others therefore, people may question my churchs' rule about 'wearing skirts'. Others make think that it is not a big deal however, it is a big deal to me because its about obeying the rules of the church. What someone may wear in church or outside of Church doesn't dictate whether or not they are going to heaven. It starts to become a situation when one decides that they are going to be disobedient towards the rule of the church.


As an aspiring actress there are going to be hard decisions that I will have to make because my spiritual beliefs. The society is getting worst and it is becoming harder to find appropriate roles for an African -American christian women. There are a lot of celebrities who started out in the church however, fame was knocking on their door. They had to make a decision on whether or not they are going to be faithful to their spiritual beliefs. It is one's dream to be a famous walking down the red carpet but am I going to choice that over my faith? This industry will turn Christians into sinners because of the ungodly things that are expected from celebrities. I cannot let fame destroy my relationship with God. I will put God first because at the end of the day, acting will not help me get into heaven.


I am not saying that there are not celebrities who are Christians however, you will find most of them singing Gospel Music. It is ten times harder for a christian to be acting because there are limited amount of roles that will represent us well. Many people are going out for those half decent roles, plus we cannot rely on those few roles to put food on the table. If I decide to go into the entertainment field I must be in charge of the direction of my successful career. I will not want someone to make or change me into something that I am not!!


OR/ AND?
