Not to mention our children and even more so our grandchildren. <br /><br />It seems like the disintegration of culture tends to be a "frog in how water" phenomena. As I look back over my 75 years and compare the roughly middle class area I lived in, the near suburb of a major city, the contrast is astonishing. Even in the early 80's when my family moved to a lower middle class neighborhood (starting to integrate very peacefully) in Memphis, TN, we seldom locked our door and our children (even pre-school) played in our yard totally unsupervised.<br /><br />By the time we moved away 26 years later the area was degenerating, crime-ridden and sliding toward being dangerous.<br /><br />In a society in which the biblically literate believer, if alert, can read the signs, our freedom to express our faith is being eroded at a staggering pace. And not just the freedom; it is becoming illegal. The signs and process of Romans 1, with the terrible results, are apparent.<br /><br />Bring what you are learning home, Mike. We need to hear it - and take it seriously. chuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04631165961382647198noreply@blogger.com
