What will become of the next generation?

"If we are traitors to the truth of God today, what will become of the next generation, and the next, and the next?" ~ Charles Spurgeon
We live in an ever changing world.  Some of it for good, and some for evil.  I am thankful that at this present time, we are able to educate our children at home, and I pray that it will always be so.  It is easy to get depressed and bogged down when reading or listening to the news.  Our government does not have our best interests in mind and their agenda is not one of truth and righteousness.  BUT we serve a God who is victorious!  A God who is ready and willing to stretch forth His hand and win the day!  Do we want Truth to prevail, or are we content to wallow around in the mire of decay and allow our children to become the victims of a traitorous government that wants nothing to do with the God of the universe?  I was telling my children the other day that they must learn all they can about our Christian heritage and  History, because there will come a day (if it's not already here) when children don't know our true history.  The children today are being programmed with socialistic propaganda, an agenda that forgets our Creator and focuses all attention on the creature... humanism.  It's not too late, for with Christ there is victory!   But it's not going to be handed to us on a silver platter.  2 Chronicles 7:14 says, "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land."

GiveAway!!

Jasmine Baucham, Author of the Joyfully Home Blog, is giving away a copy of Homeschool Dropouts, a new video by the Botkin family.  You can read Jasmine's review of the video and enter her drawing here.  Don't miss this opportunity!  Homeschooling our children is a great responsibility and it is mandated by God, but it is also important that we instill this worldview into our children so that it won't stop with them, but that they will continue on with their children and they to their children, and so on!  May God receive all the glory Alone!

Its been 1 year!

I know its been awhile. Things have finally started to slow down.....a little. We have had a very busy summer, and year for that matter. The Lord has blessed us with 1 year at McDonald Baptist Church, and I pray that we are blessed with many more to come. It has truely been a great year!

The kids started school in August, and we sent them to Trinity for the first month, but unfortunately we were unable to keep it up. So, we are back to homeschooling again! It has really been an eye opener for me though. I thought that taking them to school was going to be a help but it turned out to be rather hectic. I am actually enjoying homeschooling again! I didn't realize what a joy it is to be home! The kids have taken it pretty well too.
They took the CAT test last week, and they did very well. Rachel actually scored 10th grade level on all subjects and College level in Language! Overall, I was very pleased! I thank the Lord for the wonderful kids He has given to us!
This month is World Hunger month. It is hard for us to fathom in our land of plenty, that there are actually people in the world who are starving. I pray that this month would make us more mindful of other's needs and that we would put others before ourselves as Christ has commanded.
James will be preaching revival at Little Horse Creek Baptist Church at the end of this month. We are excited! This will be his first revival since we moved to Georgia, and we are looking forward to it. James preached an excellent sermon Sunday morning stating the effects that revival will have on our lives; it will cause us to seek after God, seek to make Him Lord over all,
By the way, there is a new show on Fox News Channel on Saturday and Sunday nights at 8 pm EST. It is the Mike Huckabee Show. We watched it last night, and I am glad that he is able to be on national tv and express his views. Keep up the good work, Huckabee!
I hope everyone gets the chance to see the new movie Fireproof. It will have a dramatic effect on your life, I promise you that! If you know of anyone who is struggling in their marriage, please take them to see it, because I believe God is going to use this movie to change lives. It is a must see!!
