Gay Marriage expands in its legalization

In case you haven't heard, the House in New Hampshire has just passed a bill to legalize gay marriage in the state. It has to go to the Senate now before it becomes law. Pray that the moral law would be upheld there.

TIME magazine and Calvinism

Here is a very interesting article about the resurgence of Calvinism in America that's predicted. It's from TIME magazine of all things! It was number 3 in relevance out of 10.

The White House Screens Prayers

Here is a very interesting blog from Dr. Albert Mohler a few days back regarding those who pray at events that involve the president. They actually make sure the prayers don't offend anyone.

You will need to register by the way (which is free to do also) and you have to type the promo code MAR2009 before you checkout to get it for free. If you listen to it, or even just a part of it, leave a comment about what you think of/learned from it!

Prayer Request

In case I hadn't told you already, my supervisor passed away at age 37, and I would request you pray for his bereaved wife and immeadiate family. It was quite sudden and makes it difficult for me and my co-workers as well, though that is obviously far inferior to the grief of his family. Please remember this in your prayers.

The Israeli/Palestinian Conflict

Here is an eye-opening blog post from a site I frequently visit called littlegreenfootballs. I think it reveals how we can pray for Israel's peace, and just how minimal their security is right now.

President Obama From the Past

Here's a helpful video on Obama's faith. It is quite revealing,
and shows how we can better pray for him as followers of Christ.
