two things: one year of blogging and healthcare reform

I’ve now been blogging for over a year.
Wowser.  I started in mid-November last year and have blogged an average of three times per week.  That seems like a lot to me.  Of course, when I started I posted frequently– four or five times a week; now I’m doing well if I get two in.
I’ve enjoyed [...]

“..abortion has done what the Klan only dreamed of.” -Dr. Alveda King

CNS News reports that, “Abortion kills more black Americans than the seven leading causes of death combined, according to data collected by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for 2005, the latest year for which the abortion numbers are available.”
And so, the spirit of Margaret Sanger lives on in Planned Parenthood.
Sanger, an ardent eugenicist and founder of Planned [...]

where were you?

8 years ago today, I was getting ready to go to my racquetball class during my second year at Bethel College. It was early in the morning and I was watching the news (as usual).
I left for the short walk to the courts. After about thirty minutes of playing our coach called [...]

gay ice cream?

Ben & Jerry’s is celebrating Vermont’s legislation for gay marriage.  They’re changing the name of their Chubby Hubby ice cream to Hubby Hubby for the month.
I am saddened.  While they peddle homosexuality as fun rainbow-y party with no consequences (not just bereft of consequence, but a noble cause of equal rights), we should be reminded [...]

Al Mohler takes a look at what he calls the “disposition decision” in regard to frozen embryos:
For those whose progeny are now frozen in fertility clinics, the “disposition decision” will eventually have to be made. The decision about the eventual disposition of these human embryos will reveal what these couples truly believe about human dignity [...]

Fighter verse song CD’s now available

The fighter verse song CD that my husband, Mr. TommyD, has been involved with producing and recording, are now available via Children Desiring God.  We got a copy early and I think I can sing almost every song (or verse) on there from memory, as [...]

doctors and their fight against the death culture

I’m a big fan of WORLD magazine.  
I started reading it as a young teenager and have enjoyed and profited from it ever since.  
My dad (who blogs at mdviews) recently got an article published in WORLD, and I couldn’t be more excited about it!  My dad is an OB/GYN doctor and has been in the [...]

what should a pro-life Christian think about abortionist George Tiller’s murder?

It’s a sad story.
Late-term abortionist George Tiller was gunned down and killed at his church on Sunday.
It shouldn’t have happened.
But what’s a Christian to think about such an event?  We fight for saving the lives of those George Tiller killed: the unborn.  Now he will kill them no more.  How should we be feeling?  Should [...]

who needs a free press? O-TV has you covered.

Un-be-lieveable.
You’ve got to check out this article, by the bastion of balanced reporting, ABC news (tongue firmly in cheek).  
In April, the White House received a ladies’ basketball team from Connecticut, the winners of the NCAA championship.  After the formal event, the lady b-ball players and the President met up at the basketball court.  But [...]
