“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

IN THE BLEAK MID-WINTER

In this part of the world (Canada) we have entered our legendary time of winter. But the deep chill of sub-zero temperatures are warmed by Christmas. The Joy of Christ within me melts the frosty bleak winter's short days and long nights. Weeks are passed cloistered in my little house buried under "snow on snow, on snow." What can I give to Christ? I shall give Him my heart. Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, no matter the season.

Inspiring post. Thank you. And thank you for the introduction to Sissel. I listened to several of her uplifting songs and plan to listen to more.

I will pass this post along.

Have a blessed Christmas!
