Tough Times Ahead For U.S. Christians: "Being Christian in America increasingly means something very different from what it has meant previously in our nation’s history.
As the culture and its values change, so too does the position once held by the teachings of traditional, Bible-based Christianity.
Simply put, the Christian values once applauded by this society are increasingly being attacked by this society, and that growing antagonism extends not just to the values, but to the people who ascribe to them."

China: Christianity’s sleeping giant
China: Christianity’s sleeping giant: "It was my last Sunday morning in China, my last chance to experience church in a Communist country where, as far as I could tell, Christianity was basically forbidden. It was 2011, and I had been in Beijing for five weeks to study Mandarin. In that time, I hadn’t seen a single cross, church or Bible. In fact, I read at customs that you couldn’t bring in more than four Bibles from abroad. I had no idea that I was in the third-largest Christian country in the world."

Modern Evangelism: Mistake #8 - GospelFuel.com
Modern Evangelism: Mistake #8 - GospelFuel.com: "How many sermons on hell have you heard this year? How many sermons on hell did you preach this year? God used men like Jonathan Edwards and Asahel Nettleton because they preached on the doctrine of hell and warned sinners not to go there."

The Comfort Zone: Words of Comfort: Before Sin.
The Comfort Zone: Words of Comfort: Before Sin.: "Before Adam and Eve sinned, they were two happy, naked vegetarians. Immediately after eating the fruit God commanded them not to eat, they were naked and ashamed. In an effort to cover their shame, they sewed fig leaves together. When God found them in the garden, He slaughtered the first animal in history to make skins to cover Adam and Eve."

Obama Calls Homosexuality One of Our 'Fundamental Freedoms' - Minutemen News
Obama Calls Homosexuality One of Our 'Fundamental Freedoms' - Minutemen News: "President Barack Obama has elevated the right to have sex with a member of the same sex to the level of universal “fundamental freedoms” in a new presidential statement criticizing Uganda. But critics say his promotion of homosexuality in a continent that overwhelmingly opposes that behavior amounts to a form of liberal “cultural imperialism.”"
