Babies from Heaven!

The Fertility Gap
-- More Christians on the Way

BreakPoint Commentary
September 12, 2007

An interesting commentary by Chuck Colson aired on BreakPoint this week.
Here is a link to it: http://www.breakpoint.org/listingarticle.asp?ID=7036

I post this teaser below, and hope you will venture to Chuck’s BreakPoint website for an opportunity to read the full commentary. I believe via streaming audio, you can also listen online.

For the last half century, Western industrialized nations, fearing overpopulation and despoiling the planet, have made slowing population growth one of their top priorities. So now we are in the middle of what one observer calls a "global baby bust"—except, that is, among devout Christian families, those who take seriously the biblical mandate to "be fruitful and multiply." It shows that when Christians live out the biblical worldview, we not only survive, we thrive.

Sandra & I seem to have children with a "Christian World View", who are doing their part in this endeavor. Sarah & Nathanael are soon to have their third!

I hope my next blog post is a photo of the newest... Mosley baby!

Please pray for them, as they await this gift from above.
