Population Crisis: Satan’s Lie or Not?
For a while now I have been wanting to blog about demographic issues. The world's view vs the Christian world view. Today I was reading in, The Family (God's Weapon for Victory) by Robert Anderson, the chapter happened to be on this topic.

Engaging but Not Encouraging Halloween

When I was a young mom, I struggled so much with how to handle Halloween. We were teaching our daughter to love Jesus, to walk in purity, turn from sin, and to also be a LIGHT in the darkness.
