The usual liberal suspects want to ban guns. In the last 50 years they have successfully banned God. Isn't that enough for them? We can ban this and we can ban that. But until we get on our knees, repent, and ask God Almighty for mercy, there will be more Newtowns.

Our morality has dissipated and disappeared during the last 50 years. There has to be a change of heart and mind. There are people living in rebellion and disobedience to God, and they are using the courts to force the rest of America to do the same thing. It's time Christians drew a line in the sand and churches got back to preaching sin, redemption, and the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Anything else is heresy.

I've worked with kids at my church and have been truly blessed. Many of them I have watched grow into beautiful young women and men. But for those who make it, there are thousands who don't. We only have them for a couple of hours a week. The culture has them the rest of the time.

Parents, pray for your children, because if you won't I will. That's my promise. And dress them in the armor of God every day before they leave home.

Finally, to all you bullies and murderers out there: Leave the kids alone!
