Eleven Arguments Against Same Sex Marriage
An article with excerpts from a new book by James Dobson. I've been relatively quiet about the whole thing, thinking that we'd do well to undergird marriage and save it from divorce, not just this current "crisis". But by far, this is the most informative piece I've read on the subject. Much prayer...
On the same topic, here's a message from the WorldPrayerTeam:
- ACTION ALERT FROM THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF EVANGELICALS
A Special Message From Pastor Ted Haggard, President
Today, homosexual couples are marrying in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The crisis concerning marriage is now a real and present danger to our society. Join with the National Association of Evangelicals for an important 90-minute Church Communication Network (CCN) broadcast this Sunday evening, May 23rd, 6:00-7:30 PM Mountain Daylight Time. Hear some of the nation's leading experts on the crisis of homosexual marriage and its detrimental impact on America's families - Dr. James Dobson, Chuck Colson, Bishop Wellington Boone and Tony Perkins - as they inform, educate, and call the Church to action.
Following the speakers we will spend 30 minutes praying for our nation at this critical juncture, asking God to defend His institutions of marriage and family. These sacred institutions are the foundational building blocks of our society, and now more than ever, we need to cry out to God for His powerful intervention.
