Culture of death
When I watch people say incredibly threatening things to a dentist who hunts a lion… (which, by the way, would be terroristic threats in some other situations)… and then say NOTHING when videos are shown of Planned Parenthood doctors talking of selling off body parts (or worse, defending the actions as “legal”)… and when I realize that many of the…

Aslan will roar
Forget Cecil the lion on that day. There will be another Lion that will roar. It will be a day when Planned Parenthood can’t duck under ANY kind of media cover.

Power failure
I was reading through the Gospel of Mark and in Chapter 9 there is the story of the man who brought his son to the disciples and they couldn’t cast it out. By Mark 9:19 I wrote this question to myself in the margin of my Bible: “When will I get tired of my spiritual impotence?” When?
