An attempted post-birth abortion fails.
Unlike the child that survived an attempted “legal” abortion only to have her life snuffed out in a trash can by a cold-blooded abortion clinic staff member (see here), this latest story ends on a much better note. In the … Continue reading

Many object to homeschooling or private Christian schools based on the fact that God has called us to be “salt” and “light” and to evangelize the world. Ironically, this is precisely why we chose homeschooling. The Great Commission states: “Go … Continue reading

His grace is not shown at the expense of righteousness, nor do His mercies ignore the requirements of holiness. – A.W. Pink 1886 – 1952
Certainly not “Your Best Life Now” for those outside America.
While we entertain ourselves with stupid little videos to show the Hollywood culture how cool, hip, and relevant we are, this is going on everywhere else. HT: Saced by Grace
