MUSINGS FROM PASTOR BRAD

  This time of year, with graduations happening, I always find myself looking back a bit to my childhood and my time in high school and college.  My elementary and middle school years were in the 1980’s and my high school and college years were in the 1990’s, so I lived in a glorious time.  Nowadays, 90’s trends are coming back and my own Goddaughter over the past few years has asked for movies from those time periods for Christmas and birthday gifts (I’m incredibly proud).

  So I thought it would be fun to share some of my favorite pop culture items from that time period.  We are all shaped by the time and place we grew up in.  Remembering that past can bring us joy but also inform how we are in the future.  From the embarrassing fashion (there is much) to the impact of movies, TV, and music, we look at the world through the lens of those influences and that time and space.  I hope these lists either give you chuckles, make you say “What is he thinking?” or inspire you to check this stuff out for yourself.  Have a blessed week!

My Top Ten Movies of the 1980’s:

 Note: two Star Wars movies were made in the 1980’s.  They are not included in these lists because Star Wars movies, even the really bad ones, are better than any other movies ever).

  1. Ferris Bueller’s Day Off
  2. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
  3. Footloose
  4. Karate Kid
  5. Dirty Dancing

(I can think of at least ten more movies I could easily add here that I didn’t.  I picked these because these are the ones I tend to watch the most or stick with when they are on cable.)
