I would rather have freedom in God than “help” from the government. God please make me strong enough to stand before You and not before the governments of man!

The Death Penalty Values Human Life
Illinois recently abolished the death penalty. I posted a comment about that on one off my Facebook friend’s wall about how this action devalued human life.

The Gospel of Everything

End of the World vs. Hope
I recently posted an article by Chuck Colson on my facebook page: “There are reports of rioting and looting across the country. But this is no time for such behavior.
