What’s the Difference between Planned Parenthood and Mass Killers?: "I just wrote my quarterly tax check to the IRS. Then I read that Planned Parenthood’s total assets are more than $1.244 billion, part of which is some of my and your confiscated tax money.

On The Box: Words of Comfort: The 2nd Commandment: "Violation of the Second of the Ten Commandments (you shall not make up false gods) is the doorway to all evil.

On The Box: Words of Comfort: Motivational Speakers

On The Box: Words of Comfort: Motivational Speakers: "The Apostle Paul rejoiced even when evil men preached the gospel—when they did so “insincerely, hoping to add affliction to my bonds” (see 1 Philippians 1:15-18). This is because the quality is in the seed, and not in the seed’s sower. However, evangelists who tell people to just ask Jesus into their heart because He will make things better are not preaching the gospel."

On The Box: Words of Comfort: Why Do 80% of Youth Leave Church After High School?

On The Box: Words of Comfort: Why Do 80% of Youth Leave Church After High School?: "There is a well-known statistic that tells us that 80% of youth stop attending church after they graduate high school. As a parent, that’s the most horrifying statistic in the world to me! Let me bring that closer to home, that means, in a church youth group with 20 kids, over 15 will no longer go to church after they graduate. In a home, 3 out of 4 of our kids statistically will forsake fellowship by the time they’re 18. The cry of all of our hearts should be “why”?!"
