1+ hour, 46+ min ago (638+ words) Editor's note. This appears in the December issue of National Right to Life News,the "pro-life newspaper of record." Please share with your pro-life family and friends. As I write this editorial, we are fifteen days from Christmas. Why is December 25 so vitally important? I believe, firmly and unequivocally, that because, whether times be good for our cause or tough for those who defend the little ones, many of us in the Movement are sustained by the assurance that we are doing what He has appointed us to do. In the turning point of The Christmas Carol, Scrooge asks the Ghost of Christmas Yet-to-Come "tell me if Tiny Tim will live." "I see a vacant seat," replied the Ghost, "in the poor chimney corner, and a crutch without an owner, carefully preserved. If these shadows remain unaltered by the Future,…...

1+ hour, 52+ min ago (1006+ words) You die and go to " well, it's complicated. You wake up on a train. At the station, you follow the crowd. You connect with your afterlife coordinator. You have a week to decide where to spend eternity. That's the intriguing plot of "Eternity," a new romantic comedy starring Miles Teller, Elizabeth Olsen and Callum Turner. "The afterlife has always fascinated people," Religion Unplugged's Joseph Holmes noted in his recent film review. "While organized religion is on the decline, more Americans believe in an afterlife today than they have since the 1970s," Holmes wrote. "So it's inevitable that we would start to see more creative interpretations of the death " and what happens after " in the stories we tell, unmoored by the need to be faithful to religious tradition." Rated PG-13, "Eternity" is far from perfect, as Holmes' review makes clear. Still, I…...

3+ hour, 18+ min ago (1015+ words) I have been reflecting deeply, prayerfully, on what God is saying to His Church in this hour. I am freshly gripped by the words of Jesus in Matthew 28, the Great Commission we recite so easily but obey so shallowly. For years, much of the Church has reduced this magnificent mandate to evangelism alone: preach the gospel, win converts, baptise believers, but largely leave the "transforming of the mind" to the institutions of the State. Yet Jesus, who has all authority in heaven and on earth, does not end His commission at conversion or baptism. He commands us to teach the nations to observe everything He has commanded. Every word. Every charge. Every aspect of life brought joyfully, humbly, comprehensively under the Lordship of Christ. That means everything. That changes everything. It means discipleship is not a minimalist enterprise but a…...
