Do I Really Believe?
“Do you really believe that what you believe is really real?” That’s the opening premise in Dr. Del Tackett’s The Truth Project, a systematic worldview study.
This week, as we consider the results of the election we’ve just gone through, that question seems especially appropriate to me. Am I totally convinced that the belief system I claim is truly real? Truly reliable? Truly right in every situation?
Over the past several months we have made many and varied appeals to voters in Wisconsin to honor God with their vote—and we believe that is incredibly important in any election. I truly believe that, and believe it is really real.
But as we now live with the consequences of the election, do we really believe that God is sovereign, that He is truly in control of everything, even to the putting up and taking down of leaders, even to how viruses come and go, even to how justice is brought to bear on those who lie and cheat to get what they want even in an election? Do we really believe how God operates is really real?
As we await the outcome of not only the presidential race but local races across the state of Wisconsin, this would be a good time to read the rest of this week's Wisconsin Family Connection radio commentary - click HERE. As always, we urge you to continue in prayer for our leaders, our president and his family and our great nation.
Julaine Appling, WFA president, adds, "The days immediately following a major national election provide opportunity to think about worldview. Since the fall in the Garden of Eden, at least two competing worldviews have been in play: God’s and Satan’s, which becomes a man-centered, humanistic worldview. We have been watching in real-time a showdown between these competing worldviews. While many institutions, especially public education, widely promote non-biblical worldviews, the church must be the main means of holding forth and promoting the truth of a biblical worldview.
"Elections give us a little sense of which worldview is dominate in our country. It’s legitimate at times like these to ask how successful the Christian church has been in standing for and promoting God’s truth, which becomes a worldview. Since churches are only as strong as their families, promoting and living a Christian worldview really starts with dads and moms building God’s truth in their children."
Wisconsin Family Action works hard during election time (and all year!) to bring you trustworthy, accurate information that aligns with your Judeo-Christian values. Click HERE to partner with us today!
November is ADOPTION MONTH!
From ChristianNews.net: "President Trump issued a proclamation on [October 30, 2020] in recognition of National Adoption Month, citing the value of human life and encouraging “adoption as an alternative to abortion.”
“'My administration believes that every human life has inherent value, and encourages adoption as an alternative to abortion...All children, born and unborn, deserve a chance to have a better, more prosperous future. I commend the selfless men and women who preserve the majesty of God’s creation by providing children with a chance at a better life'.”
Read the rest of this article regarding the presidential proclamation regarding National Adoption Month HERE.
Julaine Appling says, "We are strong advocates of adoption—and as someone who was adopted as a baby, I am certainly an adoption champion. As the president has said, adoption is definitely an alternative to abortion—but tragically in places such as Planned Parenthood it is rarely talked about or presented to women. Praise God for wonderful pregnancy care centers where adoption is always a positive option."

COVID Steals Christmas From WI State Capitol

"Three Beating Hearts"
Steve Hess & Southern Salvation have the honor of being the resident artist at The Ark Encounter and perform at the Answers Center Theater almost 400 times a year.
"Three Beating Hearts" was released to Southern Gospel and Christian Music radio in 2019 and became another Christian Music charting song for the group. Most importantly, it shared a pro-life message that is close to the ministry hearts of the group, Ken Ham and Answers In Genesis. Listen and watch the Official Lyric video HERE.
