Don’t Give Up on an American Renewal
I believe that the latter part of the 20th century and first of the 21st could be described one day as the “Great Turning Away” of the Western World from God, faith, freedom and the blessings that flow from Bible-based nations and civilization.
It will be lamented as one of the most foolish and tragic rejections of truth in the history of humankind. Though Europe is further down that destructive path, America is not far behind.
But don’t give up yet on another American renewal. Nearly 70% of U.S. voters still believe in the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Praying for Megan’s Salvation
U.S. soccer star, Megan Rapinoe, is one of the most recognized and decorated athletes in world.
Recently, at the twilight of her brilliant career, she made a statement that turned many heads. For some, the reaction was to laugh or mock her. I can’t say she didn’t deserve it.
But I want to encourage a different response to her outburst.
Let’s pray passionately for Megan’s salvation.
Back to Eden–Walks and Work
As the world loosens-up from the corona virus lock down (some states quickly and others more slowly), my thoughts return to the Garden of Eden. Maybe it’s an escape of sorts, but I think God is using this season of angst to take us back to our roots.
I know most of us view the Covid-19 pandemic more as an attack from hell than a return to paradise. But, bear with me for a moment. Tough times tend to bring us back to the basics.
A couple of them stand out in the ancient world of Adam and Eve. Our ancestors enjoyed two primary activities in the birthplace of humanity:
Walks and work.
We would be wise to revive them.
