News from the Home Front:

It has been said that our faith in Christ is just one generation away from becoming footnote in history.  Now I don’t believe that will ever happen because of the Person, Power and Purposes of God.  He is faithful and His purpose will be accomplished.  But the gist of the thought is this; if our nation is to continue as a Christian nation, then the Christian parents and grandparents of today better do a good job to teach and train the generation of tomorrow.  The problem is that there are too many “Casual” Christians that just aren’t showing up when it comes to not just teaching the faith, but living it as Captive Christians.  What does it take to be the kind of parent or grandparent that impacts the coming generation for Christ and mentors what faith is in their daily life?  We find out the answer in our study of the lives of Abraham and Lot.  The first stands as a positive role model while the latter serves as a negative example.  If we are to truly impact our world for Christ then it starts in our hearts and flows out into our homes.
