Research from the Barna Group is always interesting.  The research can be useful to the church and individual families in various ways.  I encourage you to check out the article at the link provided.  But I have a question for you and your family.  Are you reading your Bible on a regular basis?  Especially if you are raising children, do you read the Bible together as a family?  If not, why not?  Instead of worrying about the culture across the country how about we focus on building our families upon the Word of God.  There will be less Bible skepticism when folks everywhere actually read the Scriptures!  And there will certainly be less unbelief in our Christian homes when we actually raise our children on the Word!  Get busy and stay busy!         Here is the link:  http://www.onenewsnow.com/culture/2016/06/19/study-bible-skepticism-rapidly-rising-in-us

We are facing a brewing crisis of epic proportions that threatens the very fabric of our entire society.  Unfortunately, the public school system of our nation will be the focal point of this coming social upheaval.  I believe every parent of school age children should read the article at the link provided here.  Read it carefully and think about what is beginning to unfold in our schools.  Our children are at risk as never before.  I think we are compelled to provide moral clarity for children in their formative years.  How else will they ever develop into well adjusted adults?  And I believe that instead of separating our children from Christian instruction we should do just the opposite.  Please read this and think deeply about what is going on.  Don’t kid yourself.  The culture around us is going to swallow up our children with little resistance if God’s people do not aggressively oppose it.  Here is the link:
