“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

CHRISTMAS AND CHRISTIANS IN THE MIDDLE EAST

Persecution and discrimination of Christians in the Middle East -- the cradle of Christianity -- has grown more intense over the last 15 years with the rise of Islamic extremism. This persecution has been so intense and severe that the Christian population has been reduced from 20% a century ago to 3-4% today. As a small gesture of solidarity with my fellow Christians in that area of the world, may I present an Arabic Christmas carol.
