Television
I do not watch TV. I have one local channel, an ABC affiliate, and I just don't watch it. When I have the opportunity to watch TV I am reminded why I don't watch and that I don't miss it.
Books
Bible, books related to Bible studies (commentaries, devotionals, in-depth study resources, etc.), apologetics. I read mostly non-fiction and some of what I've read recently or am reading now is: The Jesus Creed, The God I Love, Irrepressible Hope, Kingdom Ethics, The Weeping Chamber, Experiencing God, Experiencing the Heart of Jesus, Jesus the One and Only, Believing God, Getting Marriage Right, Purpose Driven Life, Reaching for Invisible God.
Heroes
I don't really have "heroes", but I do have some mentors in my life. I have the most wonderful and loving parents a person could be blessed with. I would love to have the wisdom and patience of my mother and the compassion of my father. He once said when asked how he wanted to be remembered after he dies "I just want my family to know I loved them". He has never let us think otherwise.
I have a few spiritual mentors as well. These are people who have been influential in my walk with Christ. My parents, of course, who first introduced me to the ways and mysteries of God. Then, after having left church as an adult, I was re-introduced to the person of Christ, after 15 years, by my friend Deb. She was the catalyst for my conversion. Then my friend Irma who continued watering the seeds that Deb had planted and eventually saw harvest.
The most influential person in my walk with Christ is my mentor Noni. Noni mentored me and taught me the ways of the Lord with such patience and kindness and encouragement. All of these ladies are so important to me, and they will probably never even know!
Today my mentors would include Tommye, who is a great counselor, and Karen who's maturity in the Word and the sensitivity that she has to the Spirit inspires me. Karen's husband Walt is also a mentor because he is such a knowledgeable teacher whose heart is always on God and focused on sharing Him with others. Also, my best friend Katie who is my accountability partner and who always helps me to keep my focus on others and on God, even when I try to rebel.
My only true hero would be the person of Jesus Christ.

Amen to that. Heck, 5 inches here is a good day !! Same thing happened when I was in Indiana. If they got any snow at all, they shut down. They used to call school off on the CHANCE of snow. I remember driving on I-70 doing 55 with a couple inches of snow and all the people were driving single file in the right lane doing 10 mph with their hazard lights on. They looked at me like I was the anti-Christ when I passed them. SNOW !!!! Whatever shall we do ????? :)
