36 Years After Roe v. Wade: Is It Time to Move On?

Russell Moore discusses the stance of the pro-life movement in the face of very likely major setbacks courtesy of the Obama administration: 36 Years After Roe v. Wade: Is It Time to Move On?

Did you know that FOCA (Freedom of Choice Act), the legislation Obama has promised to sign into law, would remove the right of physicians and hospitals to refuse to perform abortions (freedom of conscience). "Freedom" of "choice", apparently, would not apply to healthcare professionals and the health care industry.

Fight FOCA

Should We Be Patriots in the Pew?

Should we have patriotic worship services? Can we celebrate our citizenship in heaven and at the same time celebrate our earthly national citizenship?

Russell Moore, Stanley Hauerwas (!?), and Mark Dever discuss the question. In case anyone cares, I agree most with Mark Dever, with perhaps a bit of Russell Moore thrown in.

Don't expect this show to answer all your questions, but it could possibly make you think about things a little differently.

The Problem Of Mandatory Preschool - Albert Mohler

Apparently a number of politicians have plans to move toward mandatory preschool. To some, this probably sounds like a good thing - preschool can be expensive, so state-provided preschool might seem like a blessing.

I think it is a dangerous thing to allow the state to force parents to put their four or even three-year-olds in state schools. Children need to be with their parents. Already, kindergarteners in some parts of the country are being taught that homosexuality is acceptable and even good. Do we really want the children of our nation being indoctrinated with anti-biblical teachings at even younger ages?

I know the main argument is that an earlier start will make for smarter, better-performing kids in the long run. I don't believe it. What this attitude is really saying is that parents are incapable of teaching three and 4-year-olds what they need to know, so they should hand their kids over to professionals.

Parents, you can teach your 4-year-old whatever she needs to know at that age. Sure, send your child to (Christian) preschool--he or she might like it, and it might give you a little break, but it won't take the place of you teaching your child.

Rather than expecting the state to solve our problems for us, let's embrace the responsibility God has given us to raise our own children.

‘I Am a C-H-R-I-S-T-I-A-N’: Reaching Our Children with the Gospel of Jesus Christ - Russell Moore on the Albert Mohler Program

This is a great discussion between Russell Moore and Tedd Tripp on what is essential and what is harmful when it comes to sharing the gospel with children through programs like Vacation Bible School. Unlike some episodes of the Albert Mohler program, the people who call in to share their thoughts actually have worthwhile comments and suggestions to make.

I recommend regularly listening to the Albert Mohler program. Dr. Mohler is president of Southern Baptist Seminary and has great insight into both our culture and the theological framework through which we should seek to understand and interact with it.

The discussion begins at about 9 minutes and 25 seconds into the program, if you want to skip right to it.
