Here's a great story from one of our featured writers:

The Turning Point is Now
By Mary Wroblewski

This morning as I was pouring my coffee and gazing out into my backyard, I spied a snake curled around my hummingbird feeder, likely lying in wait for an unsuspecting Hummingbird to come to feed and the snake would strike.

It made me think of the serpent in the Garden of Eden who so easily smooth-talked Eve into eating of that forbidden fruit then sharing it with Adam, effectively losing the paradise they had so happily enjoyed since their creation.

Well, my friends, that serpent is still alive and well, and recruiting swiftly anyone and everyone that will follow it into the darkest regions of society and s***f out the light. It is on a mission and stops at nothing.

That includes: the lives of innocent children attending a school Mass in Minnesota, yet another school shooting in Colorado, the assassination of a Disciple of Christ engaging in open, honest debate on a college campus in Utah, and the shooting of 5 law enforcement officers (3 killed, 2 critical) ambushed while serving a warrant in Pennsylvania; and this doesn’t even include all the senseless acts of violence and depravity that occur throughout our country, and globally each and every day.

Growing up Catholic in South Louisiana my education included studying the lives of saints and martyrs. Even with this knowledge, I never once thought I would personally have to boldly stand up for my faith, and by doing so could be imprisoned or lose my life. However, as evil has permeated society globally, that reality has become apparent. In many countries, Christians are being denied the freedom to worship, pray and speak the word of God; some, imprisoned or murdered for their beliefs. Yet, while we were thinking that would never happen here, there was a slow insidious move towards secularism, and apathy in what is the “CENTER” of our life or more importantly WHO is the CENTER of our life.

The ego became supreme, and the thought of anything beyond the needs of the ego was not considered useful. Many filled their life with all of the entrapments of this world. However, we are not of this world. We are passing through, our destination, heaven, in the strong loving arms of our Savior Jesus Christ.

While our leaders attempt to “right the ship” and tip the balance of good over evil the need for spiritual warfare has never been greater. As the pendulum of goodness swings forward, the minions of evil unite to push it back. This, is the “turning point,” the threat is real and the time is now. Evil has moved into our back yards and is slithering its way throughout our country. Commit your life to the service of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and proclaim that HE IS, THE WAY, THE TRUTH, and THE LIGHT! Put on the Full Armor of God and, BE Charlie Kirk. Speak loud and proud of the Mighty God you serve. Invite debate and discussion of your beliefs and what fuels your mission to be a happy warrior for Christ and why His love compels YOU to “make heaven crowded”.

Are you with me Wayne County? Step up, speak up, and pray unceasingly!
