“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

WE SPOKE OF LIFE AND DEATH, LOVE AND HEARTBREAK ... BUT MOSTLY WE TALKED ABOUT LOVE (BOTH HUMAN AND DIVINE)

 

A number of years ago, my wife LaRee and I delivered an address to one of Calgary Alberta's largest churches, Centre Street Church. We were asked to speak about our lives together. We have experienced the full spectrum of Life issues: abortion, incurable illness, disability, euthanasia and end-of-life issues. It was an honour to be with our brothers and sisters in Christ at Centre Street Church. The congregation gave us a standing ovation. I hope you will also enjoy it.  

Sadly, four years later Canada legalized euthanasia.
