Please make time to read Joel Rosenberg’s blog. Below is just a portion of his July 23 post that so resonates with what I believe Father has been speaking to my heart.
I am deeply concerned for our nation and feel such a sense of urgency that we must “write His answer” – now while the doors to print and distribute Christian literature and the Internet are still open. It’s why I continue directing the Colorado and Philly Christian Writers Conferences even though I am old enough to retire. J But I can’t and won’t retire from the work Father is calling me to do or turn people away because they can’t afford to come.

From Joel Rosenburg’s July 23 blog:
Is this evidence of the early stages of cultural implosion? I believe it is. As I note in “Implosion: Can America Recover From Its Economic & Spiritual Challenges In Time?”, “Alarm bells are going off all around us. Lights on the dashboard are flashing, Warning! Warning! Yet America is sleeping through the alarms, blind to the warning lights. And tragically, for the most part, the Church — God’s chosen instrument to bless individuals, families, communities, and nations — is asleep as well. I shudder to imagine where we are heading if we don’t wake up soon, plead for the Lord’s forgiveness, and ask Him to use us to love our neighbors and revitalize our country….”If My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” (2 Chronicles 7:145)….America is on the brink of collapse. We desperately need God’s mercy. Without His grace, we will implode. It’s not a matter of if but when. Thus, now is the time we must urgently ask the Lord to give us a sweeping series of spiritual revivals in every part of our nation that will culminate in a Third Great Awakening. Whether God decides to say yes is up to Him. But let us not compound our many national sins by failing to get on our faces before Him and implore Him to pour out His Holy Spirit and save us from disaster.”
Looking to Jesus, the only answer – Marlene
