Tim Tebow - What a Story!

Did you know?

When Pam Tebow was pregnant with Tim she suffered an infection with a pathogenic amoeba, and an abortion was recommended by her doctors. Pam knew that both she and her unborn male child may die. Pam decided to carry the baby to term. The rest is history in the making.

My biological mother became pregnant out of wedlock as a teenager. She graciously placed me for adoption. I am so grateful for her decision. In addition to God's word regarding life, being adopted makes me particularly sensitive to the abortion issue. There are so many stories like Tim Tebow that need to be told. Perhaps more stories like this would help ensure the many stories that should happen to stop being cut short.

I hope you are involved in supporting a local pregnancy resource center, praying, standing on the truth, and seeking to love people and reach them with the message of Jesus Christ.

Over-population?

Not too long ago I heard a well-known, self-proclaimed Christian speaker tell a group of college students that the world was in a crisis and one of the big issues that he mentioned was over-population. He told the students that they probably weren't hearing this fact from the news and that what he was telling them was the truth; the world is in a crisis. The big problem that he believed we needed to help solve is the survival of the planet. Social gospel with no gospel mentioned at all. Wonder what he would say about this piece of information I read recently?


Square Miles of Land in Texas 261,914. Acres per Square Mile 640. Total Acres in Texas 167,624,960.

Population of the World (6 Billion) 6,000,000,000.

World Population per Texas Acre 36.

It would be possible to fit the entire population of the world comfortably within the State of Texas. Most people in the world live cramped together in densely populated cities. This would actually be a vast improvement for most people. Everyone has been taught in public school and the media that there is an overpopulation problem. The world is running out of land and food and etc. We have heard it all before. This idea has become common knowledge and most people believe it to be truth.

The real solution to the real problem is found in the real gospel.
