Have you forgotten that 12 churches were recently burned in Atlanta? I hope not because this was evil in our wicked society at work. Here's another article on this tragedy.

A few days ago I was visiting my husband's grandmother who is almost 87 years old, and she said something stunning. The reason it stunned me was because it is rare that I hear people say this word...wickedness. My grandma said that in her life the world has just gotten more wicked and wicked. Simply put by the dictionary wickedness means, "evil by nature and practice". Grandma is right and this story by my friend Mr. Swank proves it. (Copied with permission)

Okay all you smarty pants out there reading this blog. I have a question for you...

This is the day that the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it!

World Net Daily has an article today called Alleged Muslim terrorists gun down 6 Christians: Victims 1st were asked if they believed in Christ, infant, teen among dead .

A few months ago I heard a powerful interview with Kay Arthur concerning a man named Sergey and his family who are under persecution. I wanted to follow up on that interview because I think it's important to remember those we know are being persecuted in our prayers. If you missed that interview, it's still available to listen to on this site. Listen here.

One more great article for your reading and praying pleasure today. Crosswalk writer Mitali Perkins mentions Voice of the Martyrs in her post today called Columbine Seeds and Walden Media . Be sure to read the full article at her website, it's very cool.

One of my new friends, Charmaine Yoest, who works with the Family Research Council in Washington DC, is at the National Religious Broadcasters expo today (and the last few days - and I'm so jealous!) Anyway, Charmaine has posted some information about Voice of the Martyrs bibles for China program on her blog. Very cool.

Church burnings aren't just happening here in America, they are also happening in Pakistan. The good news is that there were no casualties.

Over the weekend I continued to follow the news about the church fires in Alabama because I wanted to see if the media is going to cover these tragedies or just sweep them under the rug. Well, on Saturday morning I found that people are calling for the President to do some investigating and today I found that there are more church fires!
