A Minority in a Christian Nation
For most Americans, Christmas is the “most wonderful time of the year.” But what about those people in our country (especially our children) who are not Christian?

Forgiveness and Shaking the Hand of JesusTHE HEART to forgive my ‘enemies’ has often eluded me.

Cruel, Not Kind IslamThe Prophet says “Know that Paradise is under the shades of swords.” Islam teaches violence as the means to conquer infidels (a term that includes all westerners and non-believers) and that all should follow the path to a one Islamic world.
