| Weekend
celebrating sexual immorality planned for Portland
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Years ago I compared Portland to the Biblical city of
Sodom. I'm no prophet. I don't have to be
a prophet, however, to conjure the comparison
when I realize that Immanuel Baptist Church
is leading a discussion about an evil propaganda
film called "For the Bible Tells Me So" on
Sunday. The historic Immanuel Baptist Church
(pictured here) is part of the denomination that help
found the League. The American Baptists have
been sliding away from Christian tradition and
orthodoxy since that time, over one hundred years ago.
Our staff has prepared a report on this weekend's
Portland activities. I hope that you will take a
few moments to inform yourself. I'm seeing the
early stages of this same plunge into irrelevance in
larger evangelical churches here in Maine. Pray
for your neighbor today. Us little people CAN
make a difference. God loves to use the weak
things of this world to shame the wise.

| Protect
Homeschooling
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Focus
on the Family is reporting that a California court issued a
ruling that could affect up to 200,000 homeschool
students. According to the ruling parents who
don't have a teacher's certificate should not be
allowed to teach. This outrageous ruling must be
confronted.
You can do something right now that will take only a
few seconds. Below you will find a link.
It will take you to an online petition. Fill out
the form and help us protect homeschooling in America.
California creates trends for the rest of the
country. Homeschooling is a hard fought right
in Maine. The price to maintain this critical
right is eternal vigilance.
More and more parents are going to choose
homeschooling for their families. It is a
great choice. Paulie and I homeschooled.
We are glad that we did.
I am writing to you from the lobby of the Samoset.
In a couple hours I will join with hundreds of fine
Christian families who homeschool. This is the
weekend for the annual Homeschoolers of Maine (HOME) Convention.
We must do everything we can to secure this
movement.
I spoke with my good friend Ed Green, the leader of
HOME, last night. He told me that the movement
continues to flourish here.
