Criminalizing Research
The editorial from the staff of the Minneapolis Star Tribune last Friday asserts that scientific research on cloning should not be criminalized, because it “could” lead to a cure for an unspecified disease, this according to the “most respected” medical research institutions with the bottom line justification offered that cloning research is for the sake of “economic strength.” Further, to be on the “forefront of research” researchers “need” to have all options open, and that limits are “anti-science” and “recklessly plunging” us toward dictatorship.

Seeing God's Goodness Through Mentoring
“What do I do with a rebellious kid?”
“What if there’s no connection?”

Introducing Jericho Road Ministries
This coming January 3, Bethlehem Urban Initiatives (BUI) will launch Jericho Road Ministries, an urban outreach inspired by the parable of The Good Samaritan—a place where mercy meets crisis.
Luke 10:29-37

What Is BUI?
“Is not this the fast that I choose:
to loose the bonds of wickedness,
to undo the straps of the yoke,
to let the oppressed go free,
and to break every yoke?
Is it not to share your bread with the hungry
and bring the homeless poor into your house;
when you see the naked, to cover him,
and not to hide yourself from your own flesh?
