Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick claims the elderly are perfectly happy to sacrifice themselves so everyone can go back to work in order to minimize the damage Covid-19 is having on the economy.
President Trump tweeted, “WE CANNOT LET THE CURE BE WORSE THAN THE PROBLEM ITSELF.” White House economic advisor Larry Kudlow agreed, saying, “We’re gonna have to make some difficult tradeoffs.”
Seems like Moloch worship is back in style. This time, rather than offering children for sacrifice, some are advocating we offer the elderly as an acceptable sacrifice to Moloch and Mammon. I never knew senicide was a family value.
Covid-19 is pushing the boundaries of our health-care systems, our global economy, and our personal sense of security and connection. It is also laying bare our idols. My prayer during this season is that we, the Church, rise above what we fear and embrace Him whom we love and who has revealed Himself as the Way, the Truth, and the Life. He has called us to choose life.
Word of the day, Senicide: The abandonment to death, suicide, or killing of the elderly.

There’s a phenomenon going on in the church today, among Christians and the non-practicing, post-church Christians. They yes to Jesus, and no to the church. However, I do not believe that people are rejecting the church outright, but are rejecting the attempts being made at being the Church. People work with methods and systems but they never get down to the essence of what the Church is. Church, after all, is not a place you go, but a people who exist.

I want you to hear a story that started many years ago, which really reached it’s climax on November 21, 2011, when I received a Facebook message from Athena.
This is a story of toxic leadership and spiritual abuse, manipulation, and loss. You’ll hear Athena’s story of falling prey to a cult that took everything from her. You will also hear how God brought this story full circle. This is also a story of redemption, healing, and hope.
You can find Athena’s book Full Circle: Coming Home to the Faithfulness of God through Redemption Press or on Amazon.

I got to know Tim over the last few years while we were doing our master’s degree. He gave me his book The Backside of Hope and I was seriously blown away. I thought he was either Mike Warnke or the most transformed person I’ve met. His book is about how God transformed his life and gave him hope. Woven into his journey is forgiveness, restoration, and receiving the love of the Heavenly Father. It is this remarkable love that ultimately surpasses anything one could ever imagine or hope for.
