Voice of the Day: Peter Storey on 'Ordinary People'

There have been many, many others who have stood for the truth. They have been a minority, but together, the convictions of that minority and their commitment to obey God and stand for God's truth have made it possible for this moment of God's intervention - God's turning of the tide. Never underestimate the importance of ordinary people standing for the truth, because they also enable others to play their part.

- Peter Storey, former president of the Methodist Church of South Africa

Good news will not get to the ears of children raised under a liberal/progressive flag.

Just hedonism and its resulting STD's.

Dr. Dobson and the "right" tried, but we are living in days like Noah's.
