Dear Jorge,
Your message was heard! On September 12th, I, along with members of the Restore Military Religious Freedom Coalition, met with senior Air Force officials at the Pentagon to express our concerns over the burgeoning hostility towards Christians. Thanks to you, I was able to deliver five boxes filled with 218,988 petitions to senior Pentagon officials urging them to cease the onslaught of persecution and discrimination against our military members.

In addition to your petitions, I ensured that Pentagon officials had a copy of our report: A Clear and Present Danger: The Threat to Religious Liberty in the Military which gives clear examples of incidents of hostility to military religious freedom. Without your support and willingness to take the time to sign these petitions, this would not have been such a success. We at FRC and the Restore Military Religious Freedom Coalition thank you for standing for the faith alongside the service men and women who serve our country so faithfully.
Sincerely,

Lt. Gen. (US Army-Ret.) William "Jerry" Boykin
Executive Vice President

The Danger in Being a Christian: It began as a Jewish sect; fierce persecution only helped it spread Today's reading: Acts 8 Acts 8:1 On that day a great persecution broke out against the church at Jerusalem, and all except the apostles were scattered throughout Judea and Samaria. In some countries, a person who becomes a Christian forfeits a good education and job. And in a few countries, a person who converts risks his or her life. One church historian estimates that more Christians were martyred in the twentieth century than in all preceding centuries put together. Yet, strangely, more often than not, intense persecution of Christians leads to a spurt of growth in the church. An ancient saying expresses this phenomenon: "The blood of martyrs is the seed of the church." The First Big Advance For a while, the new faith enjoyed popular favor. But very soon it involved grave risk. In the book of Acts, the persecution that produced the first Christian martyr, St...

One Day at a Time - May 21

Reflection on Genesis 44:33 Sometimes we get a second chance. When we do, it’s important to seize the opportunity. That’s what Judah did. When his brothers wanted to kill Joseph, Judah didn’t rescue Joseph but instead suggested that they sell him as a slave (see Genesis 37:26–27 ). His second chance came when Benjamin’s life appeared to be in danger. This time Judah put his own life on the line to protect his half brother, Rachel’s other son. Perhaps this commitment was taken into account in the blessings that God inspired Jacob to give his sons; eventually the Messiah came through Judah’s descendants (see Genesis 49:10 ). God often gives us second chances in life. When he does, we need to take advantage of the opportunity and set things right.
