Remembering the 50 Million

Posted by Ray Pritchard on Sunday, January 22

It’s hard to think clearly about 50 million.It’s a number so big that we don’t really know what it means. Take one baby and ponder that child for a moment. Look at his eyes, his ears, reach out and touch his tiny fingers. Hold that baby in your arms and think what a miracle it is that even one baby should enter the world.&nbs...

Should We Be Glad George Tiller is Dead?

Posted by Ray Pritchard on Monday, June 1, 2009

A thoughtful person wrote a note asking how pro-life Christians should feel about the murder of Dr. George Tiller, the late-term abortionist who was gunned down while serving as an usher in his church in Wichita, Kansas. The writer frames the question this way: Do you think it’s a sin to feel relief that he is dead? While I would never condon...

We Shall Not Weary, We Shall Not Rest

Posted by Ray Pritchard on Sunday, January 18, 2009

In so doing, the president noted that “the most basic duty of the government is to protect the innocent.” And who among us is more innocent and more worthy of protection than the unborn? On January 9 we lost an ardent spokesman for the pro-...

One Man’s Vote

Posted by Ray Pritchard on Thursday, October 30, 2008

On moral and political issues, they disagree almost completely, but on one major point they are united. This is a turning point election in American history. In its endorsement of Barack Obama, the New York Times says that “this year the natio...

Today marks the 35th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision that effectively legalized abortion in America.

Time to Go to the Holy Land

Posted by Ray Pritchard on Wednesday, January 17, 2007

I’m writing this note at 12:46 AM. We leave for the Holy Land in six hours so I’m going to have to go to bed soon. But before I do, I simply reflect on how this trip came about. In the long view of things, it started forty-five years ago, when my childhood pastor, J.O. Colley, took a trip to the Holy Land. When ...

On the other end of the phone, I heard Mark’s voice, “Mom and Dad, we’re engaged.” He was using a cell phone to call us from the Great Wall of ...
