“Our once great western Christian civilization is dying. If this matters to followers of Jesus Christ, then we must set aside our denominational differences and work together to strengthen the things that remain and reclaim what has been lost. Evangelicals and Catholics must stand together to re-establish that former Christian culture and moral consensus. We have the numbers and the organization but the question is this: Do we have the will to win this present spiritual battle for Jesus Christ against secularism? Will we prayerfully and cooperatively work toward a new Christian spiritual revival ― or will we choose to hunker down in our churches and denominationalisms and watch everything sink into the spiritual and moral abyss of a New Dark Age?” - Mark Davis Pickup

MEDIATED LEARNING AND DOWN SYNDROME

Encouraging the Common Good of society involves helping each individual reach their full potential despite significant challenges they may face. I came across a fifteen minute documentary about mediated learning for children with special cognitive challenges and in particular Down's. I invite you to view "Looking Up Not Down" at the links below. Excellent!
