If you missed Kerri Pomarolli on SHOWBIZ tonight, here’s a link to the full transcript.

Some excerpts:

Kerri Pomarolli is one of the most successful Christian entertainers in Hollywood. She`s also the author of “If I`m Waiting on God, Then What am I Doing in a Christian Chatroom?”

ANDERSON: Now, you know, just a short time ago, Kerri, you saw the Mel Gibson interview with Diane Sawyer. He talked about having to apologize repeatedly to fans, friends, family for his behavior.

You know, what do you think about it? Will people accept his apology and forgive him? Do you think people are going to buy it?

POMAROLLI: You know, it`s my job to come on your show as a Christian and walk the walk that I`m called to walk, which is, we have to forgive if somebody asks for repentance. Now, each person out there in Hollywood and the world can make their own decision whether they want to forgive Mel for the hurtful comments that he made, but I`m personally going to make the decision that he seemed very repentive on TV. And I hope that we can find it in our hearts to forgive him, because I do.

ANDERSON: He`s clearly trying to rehabilitate his image. He does want to continue to be successful in the industry, make more movies, be able to release them. Kerri, what do you think about the Hollywood community? I know you`re planning to forgive him, but do you think the Hollywood community as a whole will embrace him again?

POMAROLLI: You know, there`s been people like Jodie Foster and Patrick Swayze and some other friends of Mel`s that have actually come out and supported him. I mean, I know that Hollywood in general, we love to tear people down and then build them back up. We love drama; we love a good story.

There is one that makes all things new; only one that can turn a hopeless situation into a trophy of grace and reconciliation. Only one that can use our very failures to communicate hope to the hopeless. He waits patiently as we travel the road to the end of ourselves and offers up a new way of living; a new way of dying. His burden is light and his peace gives rest to the faint of heart. - Heather

Heather Powers - “Undone” (MP3 sample)

Woe to me
I’m undone
Unclean lips and
A warrior tongue

When I’m with You
Silence best becomes me
Love inflames
And I’m constrained to speak
If my eyes could see the fire that consumes me
To embrace this love
And what it does to me

I need to know the Unapproachable
I need to hide in arms unconditional
Lose my life
Find the peace in letting go
I want to be undone
I want to be undone
