Prayer Bulletin for May 2025
Prayer is a direct line to communicate with God which helps us to align our hearts and minds with God’s perfect will. (Phil 4:6-7) The Bible commands prayer (1 Thes 5:17, “pray without ceasing”). Prayer is an act of faithfulness to God’s instruction. It is also a selfless act of love when we intercede for others’ needs. (Mat 22:39, Mark 12:31, Lev 19:18)

Language and the Battle Over Life
52 years ago, seven out of nine robed men in Washington, D.C. banged the gavel and declared a death sentence upon what would turn out to be 65 million (and counting) human beings in America. I refer to the infamous Roe v. Wade SCOTUS decision of January 22, 1973. And they twisted plain language to usher in this death sentence.

“Don’t Know Much About History”
George Orwell wrote in his classic novel, 1984: “Who controls the past, controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.”
So, there’s a battle over history. That battle continues in our day.

The SHIELD Act (S.412) passed in the U.S. Senate in July. This bill would address image-based sexual abuse by establishing new laws to knowingly distribute sexually explicit content of an individual without their consent. It will also outlaw the distribution of pornographic images of minors that are intended to humiliate, harass, or degrade the minor. But, if S.412 passes the U.S. House and is signed into law, will it be enforced?

Critics Slam “Racist” Illinois Plan to Fund Colleges Based on Skin Color
Critical Race Theory and systemic racism in education are going to a whole new level in Illinois. In fact, under a proposed new scheme supposedly aimed at fighting alleged “disparities” in higher learning, people with darker complexions (or lower grades) will literally be worth more than those with lighter skin.

Did you know? When the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of Joe Kennedy, the high school football coach who fought for his right to pray after games, they overturned a decision that had long restricted religious expression in public schools.
