Family is the first institution established by the Creator, God. This institution is under relentless attack. Our society no longer values the structure that God established to produce successful citizens, productive people, and healthy children. We are in a downward spiral. Silence is not an option.
The Marriage, Family, and Life Conference, June 20th-22nd, will equip the Body to engage our culture boldly with Truth. A collection of voices have been assembled to speak to the most pressing issues of our day.

“Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.” Proverbs 29:13 (NASB).

Illinois’ “Reproductive Health Act,” SB 25. Is worse than NY’s pro-baby murder law.
It repeals the state’s ban on partial birth abortion, allows babies to be killed through the 40th week of gestation, and requires insurance companies to pay for it.
It also eliminates the state’s Abortion Performance Recusal Act so that medical professionals will be forced to recommend, perform or assist in abortions.
All licensing requirements for abortuaries would be removed and pregnant minors would be able to kill their babies without parental notice… and the parents will be forced to pay for it regardless of their consent.
“He who shuts his ear to the cry of the poor will also cry himself and not be answered.” Proverbs 29:13 (NASB).

Joe Biden initially came out supporting a ban on federal funds for abortion.
But after one day of taking heavy criticism from the baby murder supporters among his party’s base, Biden voiced his support for using federal tax dollars to kill children.
Planned Parenthood and their acolytes pounced on Biden so viciously, he changed positions in less than 24 hours.
If a person cannot stand against the wicked hordes to protect the lives of the most vulnerable among us they are disqualified from holding the office of leader of the free world.

Religious freedom suffered another setback when the Washington State Supreme Court ruled against Barronelle Stutzman for refusing to create custom floral arrangements for a same-sex wedding.
Following the Masterpiece Cakeshop ruling, the U.S. Supreme Court ordered Washington state to reconsider the Stutzman case.
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled Colorado was too mean to Jack Phillip’s religious beliefs when they trampled his first amendment rights.
The Washington Court found no such meanness or animus against Barronelle Stutzman’s flower shop, so the state was right to deny her first amendment protections.
The free exercise of religion has been made subordinate to sexual deviancy.
“Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life.” James 1:12 (ESV).

Israel Folau, the all-time scoring leader in Super Rugby history, was kicked out of the Australian Rugby Union league and had his 4 year, $4 million contract terminated.
His crime, posting the truth about sin and repentance on social media. He posted: “drunks, homosexuals, adulterers, liars, fornicators, thieves, atheists—Hell Awaits You. Repent!” Then he listed several scriptures.
He was invited by the Rugby Union League to take down the post and apologize, but Folau refused to apologize for sharing God’s word.
Christian persecution in the West has begun.
“For certain men have crept in unnoticed, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying our only Master and LORD, Jesus Christ.” Excerpted from Jude 4 (NASB).

A street preacher, Pastor David Lynn, was arrested for evangelizing in Toronto’s Church-Wellesley Village area.
He spent the night in jail and his bail conditions bar him from so-called “Pride” events and from “the village” area.
The arresting officer, an open homosexual, said he arrested Pastor Lynn because of derogatory comments, even though he didn’t know what was said. All he knew was that people clearly disturbed by the comments.
As a result, Pastor Lynn was arrested for disturbing the peace.
America is heading this way too.
“Do you see a man wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him.” James 1:27(a) (NASB).

ESPN’s new President, Jimmy Pitaro, has steered the network away from politics and instructed its commentators to stick to sports.
He said, “without question our data tells us our fans do not want us to cover politics. My job is to provide that clarity. Some of our talent was confused. I don’t believe they are confused anymore.”
I wonder what data caused this course correction? Perhaps it’s the 15 million subscribers the network lost.
Pitaro hopes his return to the network’s old direction will right the ship.
Time will tell.
“Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of [our] God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress.” James 1:27(a) (NASB).

Burly Man Coffee is a subscription coffee service from South Florida that is using their profits to make a difference in the lives of others, in more ways than one.
The Christian owned company first gifted Celeste Bokstrom, a single mother and full-time caretaker of her 16 year old son Logan who is non-verbal and autistic, with a four-door Kia Sedan.
Now, the company has announced an initiative to give cars to 100 single mothers in need to help make their lives a little bit easier.

Earlier this year Virginia Governor Ralph Northam came under massive national criticism for voicing his support for infanticide.
He later doubled down on that support by saying, “I don’t have any regrets.”
While protecting newborn babies who survive abortions is apparently too much for Northam to support, a law against animal cruelty isn’t.
Northam has a signed a law, set to take effect July 1st, that increases the penalty for “cruelly or unnecessarily beating, maiming, mutilating, or killing a dog or cat” to a class 6 felony.
Protecting animals is fine for the Governor. Protecting babies, not so much.
“A false balance is an abomination to the LORD.” Proverbs 11:1(a) (NASB).

Prior to shutting down the Office of Special Counsel, Bob Mueller conducted a 9 minute press conference.
His display was so odious, long time Democrat voter, liberal lawyer and professor Alan Dershowitz was aghast.
Dershowitz said “by putting his thumb, indeed his elbow, on the scale of justice in favor of impeachment, Mueller has revealed his partisan bias.”
Dershowitz continued, “Shame on Mueller for abusing his position of trust and for allowing himself to be used for such partisan advantage.”
Translation: Bob Mueller is the partisan hack we thought he was and a co-conspirator in the coup effort to overthrow the President.
“Jesus answered him, "If anyone loves me, he will keep my word.” 14:23(a) (ESV).

We live an era currently where spirituality is en vogue. Christ following is not.
Some, even claim to love Jesus while simultaneously rebelling against His word and encouraging others to rebel similarly.
But, Jesus said it himself: “if you love me you will obey me. Whoever does not love me does not obey my words.”
Make no mistake about it, to love Jesus is to obey Him. You cannot love Jesus and disobey Him.
If you are living in rebellion against Jesus’ word, you are not following Jesus as He’s revealed Himself in scripture. You’re following a god you’ve created.
“Professing to be wise, they became fools.” James 1:21(a) (NASB).

With a 12-6 vote the Nevada state Senate moved one step closer in an effort to complete nullify the Electoral College as established in the U.S. Constitution.
Should its Democratic Governor sign the legislation, Nevada will add six electoral votes to the 189 already pledged by 14 other states and the District of Columbia bringing the total electoral votes represented in the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact to 195.
The compact requires 270 votes to go into effect.
Unsurprisingly, the jurisdiction in the compact are all dominated heavily by Democrat politics.
Some people really hate the Constitution.

According to the New York Times, the number of rat sightings in New York City has increased 38% between 2014 and 2018.
In the same period, the number of times the city health inspectors found active signs of rats nearly doubled: 30,874 “active rat signs” compared to 16,315 in 2014.
The top spot for rat sighing complaints has the Upper West Side, followed by four Brooklyn neighborhoods, Prospect Heights, Bed-Sty, Buschwick and Ocean Hill.
There are mountains of garbage in the city and rats are seen gorging themselves nightly.
The rats have taken over.
“Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them.” Ephesians 5:11 (NASB).

Upon receiving notification that PBS’ Arthur, a children’s cartoon, was set to air the same-sex wedding of its Mr. Ratburn character Alabama Public Television Director of Programming Mike McKenzie refused to air the episode.
Mike McKenzie also said Alabama Public Television has no plans to air the same-sex wedding episode in the future.
Explaining the decision McKenzie said, “our feeling is that we basically have a trust with parents about our programming. This program doesn’t fit into that.”
Alabama is winning more than college football national championships these days.
Good on you Alabama.

The number of babies born in America dropped to a 32 year low in 2018, according to the CDC.
To replace a generation 2,100 births per 1,000 women are needed. In 2018, that rate reached just 1,728 births per 1,000 women.
The rate has generally been below replacement since 1971 and consistently below replacement for the last decade.
The genesis of the consistent failure to reach population replacement levels with baby births can be traced to the early 1970s.
Roe v. Wade was decided January 22, 1973.
You do the math.

Three years after the Civil War ended, the head of an organization of Union veterans established Decoration Day as a time for the nation to decorate the graves of the war dead with flowers.
Decoration Day has now come to be known as Memorial Day, the day we honor those military members who have given their lives to secure our nation’s freedoms.
As we honor them, let’s pray for our military members. In addition to their physical safety let us also pray for their spiritual and eternal well being.

Following the Jussie Smollett saga, where Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx dismissed 16 felony charges against the actor who plotted his own hate crime hoax, several co-stars of the hit television series Empire wrote a letter to executives and producers demanding that Smollett return to the show.
Fox Entertainment responded to the letter by announcing the show, Empire, is cancelled.
The show’s sixth season will be its last.
There was a saying in my neighborhood growing up: those who play stupid games win stupid prizes.
Hate Crime Hoax Jussie has toppled the entire “Empire.”

In a podcast for Yahoo News, Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib said thinking about the Holocaust gives her a “calming feeling.”
Additionally, in a speech at a Council on Islamic-American Relations event Tlaib said she was comforted “by envisioning her enemies float by dead” in a river.
It is absolutely bizarre to consider these things as “calming” and “comforting.”
But this woman is now in the United States of America’s Congress.
What have the people of Michigan’s 13th Congressional District wrought upon these United States?
When people tell you who they are, believe them!

Finger-pointing between high-level Obama administration government officials has begun over who pushed the unverified Steele dossier weeks before President Trump’s inauguration.
Former FBI Director James Comey says that in 2016, former CIA Director John Brennan insisted on using the dirty dossier.
But Brennan and former National Intelligence Director James Clapper are saying Comey is the one who ran with the dirty dossier over their objections.
This finger pointing is a tacit admission that they all knew it was wrong and illegal to use the dossier in the first place and it’s happening because A.G. Barr is on the trail.

According to the CDC and the Guttmacher Institute the number one reason women choose abortion is they’re “not ready for a child.”
2) “Can’t afford a baby.”
3) “Don’t want any more children.”
4) “Don’t want to be a single mother.”
5) “Not mature enough to raise a child
6) “Would interfere with education or career.”
Those reasons represent 95% of all abortions.
Risks to the mother’s physical health represent less than 4% of all abortions and conception resulting from “rape and incest” represent 1% of all abortions.
The reality? Abortion is used as birth control.
