The Golden Ticket
Who doesn’t remember Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory? Now, if you didn’t see the first version, then surely you saw the second one that came out just a few years ago! Or, you could be like me and have lived through both versions! Guess what? They are giving away another Golden Ticket-For real!! Check out this article:
It’s impossible to read Charlie and the Chocolate Factory without imagining oneself as Charlie Bucket, holding that magical golden ticket.
The Nestle-owned Wonka candy brand hopes to offer a similar feeling with its new promotion. Buy a candy bar in its Exceptionals line, and you may pull out a wining Golden Ticket. The prizes are pretty sweet: Ten grand prize winners get to bring three friends on a trip around the world with $12,500 in spending money.
Other prizes include airline vouchers, Ticketmaster gift cards, movie certificates and (of course) free chocolate.
It’s worth noting that the Exceptionals bars are the line’s priciest items; they’re being marketed as “premium chocolate.” However, that’s money I think a lot of Roald Dahl fans might be willing to spend in exchange for a potential thrill.

Wow! Well, that would be exciting, wouldn’t it?! I don’t recall seeing that type of chocolate here in good ol’ Russell Springs, but I believe I will start looking for it!
Do you remember how winning the Golden Ticket changed the entire tone of Charlie’s life? It affected how he lived, how he acted, how he treated the people around him, and everything about his future…for the better!! If you have accepted Christ in your heart, then I have good news for you!! The Good News is that you already have a Golden Ticket! Your ticket will not only do all of the above, but the Grand Prize is Eternal Life! Your ticket and everything that goes with it will give you one admission into the Golden Gates! I can’t say it is a Free Admission because Jesus paid the price for your ticket! The admission is free to you simply by believing on Him and accepting Him into your heart! In addition, just as the Chocolate Factory tour was a grand adventure for Charlie and all of the other kids, your Christian life will be just as thrilling and most assuredly never boring for very long!
If you do not possess a Golden Ticket or rather if you do not know Jesus as your Lord and Savior but would like to know more about that, click Here to learn about this amazing journey!
Now that you possess the Golden Ticket or Salvation rather, it is time to enter the Chocolate Factory or…oh…I mean your Christian Walk!
Over the next weeks, I will take the pitfalls of the Chocolate Factory tour and compare them to the ups and downs of our lives as a Christian. Stay tuned, and go buy someWonka Chocolate! Think what good you could do with that trip around the world!!
