When I observe the way parents offer [sacrifice] their children up to the gods of this age: electronic devices, government-funded education, social media, music, and entertainment, etc., and then spend their own time pursuing the gods of luxury, comfort, wealth, personal interests, etc., I cannot help but remember what God told His chosen ones:
Deuteronomy 18:
“10 There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or daughter pass through the fire [as a sacrifice], one who uses divination and fortune-telling, one who practices witchcraft, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer,
11 or one who casts a charm or spell, or a medium, or a spiritist, or a necromancer [who seeks or worships the dead].
12 For everyone who does these things is utterly repulsive to the Lord, and because of these detestable practices, the Lord your God is driving them out before you.
Our parents let the ills of American society raise us. Then, we did it to our kids. Our kids are now doing it to theirs.
To break this cycle, we must put God into these godless voids.
Again, you have shared the eloquent words of our God. I watched the WAR ROOM again over the weekend. It is more than a movie about how a married couple healed their broken marriage and I recommend watching and heeding the message of this movie. Although I believe reading the Bible and adhering to God's word is the best way this movie sends a powerful message in a way that most people that are not familiar with the Bible will understand and hopeful start reading the Bible. I don't watch or recommend many movies but I do have this on my short recommend list.

I agree with you that The New American magazine is a great publication!
