Some interesting articles for you to check out.

Sorry it has been so long since we posted an update - more on that later...

I have a couple of articles that I want to make available to you.  You may have seen some of them - the Newsweek article was the cover story, so it was pretty wide-spread - others may have slipped by you.  I thought each of them had information, insights, or an interesting angle on the world we live in.

The first is the aforementioned cover story from Newsweek Magazine.  It is an eye-opening story that all Christians need to read and be praying about.  We have brothers and sisters around the world who are being martyred for their faith.  For the details of this story you can read the details in Ayann Hirsi Ali'Newsweek article: "The Global War on Christians in the Muslim World."




The second article is from WORLD magazine, and focuses on a new way of looking at missions in the 21st Century - The article describes the "10/30 Window."  Some of you may be familiar with the phrase "10/40 Window" which is used to describe the portion of the globe from the 10th to 40th Northern latitudes - within that "belt" around the world live the largest unreached people groups in the world.  The "10/40Window" has been the primary focus of missions for the last 15 years.
The "10/30 Window" hits a little closer to home.  It is the lost generation that is currently between 10 and 30 years of age.  Check it out at  http://www.worldmag.com/articles/19008.

The final article comes from USA Today, and is about something that I believe may be at the heart of the lost generation - "Spiritual Apathy." Check out the article at http://www.usatoday.com/news/religion/story/2011-12-25/religion-god-atheism-so-what/52195274/1.

Happy Reading!
