Two giants of the church have died this week. Names that we are all familiar with are no more. Like Kenneth Hagin Derek Prince was also no stranger to controversy but it is probably right at this stage simply to remember his life and all that was accomplished through it. Where theological differences exist within the church, we are all one and the death of a man like this effects the whole church. Read more

Take a look at 3D Ultrasound pictures of babies in the womb that are making pro-abortionists very angry! Michelle Malkin: The most powerful smiles in the world: “Karpf, Brodie and their deathmates are enraged that Dr. Campbell is so gleefully showing the world that the vibrant life inside a mother’s womb is much more than inanimate and disembodied material. How dare anyone suggest that the booming business of ‘terminations’ is tantamount to mass murder?…….. When General Electric began running incredibly... Read more

Kenneth E. Hagin who started preaching at age 17 and grew his congregation into an international ministry, died Friday morning at age 86. His controversial faith teachings affected the church greatly as Christianity Today explains. But our thoughts surely must go to his widow and family. Read more

Doctors shocked by prison sentence: Whilst mistakes are inexcusible, it seems to me that this does nothing to entice me back into working for the NHS. I was lucky never to have knowingly directly caused a death whilst working as a doctor. That is not to say I never made mistakes that I nor no one else picked up. I certainly had potential mistakes corrected by pharmacists. I wonder how much sleep this doctor had in the weeks leading up... Read more

After the baby boom of the 1950s, Europe has suffered a baby bust……the European Union years will see in the next half-century an extra 40 million people aged over 60 and an absolute reduction of 40 million in those aged 15-60. Europe will either need mass imigration or an upsurge in children born to cope with its aging population of baby boomers. With four young kids I guess I am doing my part! Read more

Guardian Unlimited | Special reports | No room in the church: archbishop finds himself cast out by evangelicals: “Evangelicals, founding their belief on biblical revelation and personal conversion, form the most dynamic and growing element of the CofE and some are rejecting the leadership of their bishops and archbishops. In the 1950s, 7% of worshippers counted themselves as evangelicals, now the figure is 40% and that stretches to 60% of ordinands in training. Although by no means all feel this... Read more

Joshua Claybourn’s at it being wise again! These rules for political Christians are great. I wish more followd them….! “God does not belong to your party: No country, no political party, no political ideology can own Him. He’s the boss. The ends do not justify the means: Stuffing ballot boxes, shredding public documents, etc. are wrong, and most people would agree to that. Sometimes, though, politically active folks seem to think it’s okay if it’s for a greater good. Not... Read more

This article made my blood boil! I wish we did ‘do God’ a lot more than we do! Guardian Unlimited | The Guardian | Just say no to abstinence: “As Alastair Campbell memorably remarked: over here we don’t do God. We don’t do God at all. This must be the most valuable distinction still extant between us and America, that we have yet to fall back on bogus concepts of morality to explain why some teens sleep around and shoplift,... Read more

Teaching Stories I: “Many years ago a wise peasant lived in China. He had a son who was the gleam in his eyes and a white stallion which was his favorite belonging. One day his horse escaped from his grounds and disappeared into the fields outside the village. The villagers came to him one by one and announced their condolences. They said, ‘You are such an unlucky man. It is so bad.’ The peasant answered, ‘Who knows. Maybe it’s bad,... Read more
