Thanks for coming back

“Live Baby Thrown In Trash” is a headline that’s unblelieveable, but Obama’s voting record indicates that he supports these heinous crimes. Put aside white, black, democrat, republican, red, yellow, or green. Anyone who claims to be human could in no way support allowing a baby to die just bacause it was supposed to be aborted. If you have any doubts, just search “Obama born alive policy”. Or, you can watch a National Right To Life video.

Thanks to digitalcaffeine for bringing this article to our attention.

Cub Scout Popcorn

Posted by: Eric Sanders | Comments (0)

My son is a Cub Scout and is selling popcorn to raise funds for our pack. On average, 70% of each sale is returned to local Scouting. If you would like to support this organization, please visit OrderPopcorn.com and enter order key TEPNQA8 on the first page. This key is unique to my son to ensure credit for the sale. All orders must be in by October 24,2008. Thank you for supporting Cub Scouts.

Another update from Dr. Samuel’s family

Dear Pastor,

Papa had left to Kerala on Sunday. The anti-Christian violence have now spilt to many other states as well as in Karnataka. Reports on churches being attacked in many places are now only being broadcasted on the T.V. Today dad called me up from Kerala and told me that there was going to be a rally in Kerala to protest the violence against Christians and he would be speaking in that rally. There are no signs of the situation subsiding it just keeps spreading to other places and getting worse at the same time.

Please pray for him as he attends and speaks in that rally.

Help Spread This Story

Why are these attacks not being covered by the media? If this were attacks against muslims, hindus, or any religion other than Christian there would be non-stop coverage. The world is so blatant in it’s hatred of Christians that stories like these are suppressed. Please help spread this story in any way you can.  No one of any religion, race, or nationality should ever have to witness thier children, and no child should have to endure, being literally ripped apart alive, burned, beaten, or hacked to death for their beliefs or any other reason. This is absolute insanity.

Who’s Yo Daddy?

Posted by: Eric Sanders | Comments (0)

Last Thursday night my wife and I took our 6 year old son to his first Cub Scout meeting. A recruiter had been to his school trying to garner interest in a local pack. I was once a Cub Scout, so I knew there was great potential for my son in this program. This was an introductory meeting to inform the parents about the program as well as let the kids have some fun. He had a great time, so we joined. I filled out an application to become an adult leader as well.

Where were they?

A disappointing reality emerged as the room filled with adults eager to learn about the program and kids eager to be kids; there was only one other father in the room. The room was filled with 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade boys and their mothers. Call me old school, but I fully expected to see a room full of fathers with their sons.

We Need Both Parents

I believe that there are gender specific roles that are extremely important for overall child development. I’m not saying that the mothers should have been at home doing laundry while the fathers were teaching their sons to kill an animal bare handed. I am saying that there should have been a room full of fathers at this meeting. I’m sure that some of them had reasons why they couldn’t attend while others just had excuses.

This meeting was just a small example of a problem that is showing up all across this country. There are numerous problems in today’s society that are merely symptoms of the decay of the normal, involved family. ( Yes, I realize that I just labeled anything other than a family with a mother AND father as abnormal. If the dress fits…) When I say father I’m not necessarily talking about biological father. I have seen firsthand that  just because you can make a baby does not mean that you are fit to raise one. Fathers in America had better step up to the plate and start acting like fathers. If you don’t fill that leadership role for your kids someone or something else will.
