In the country believed to have sparked the beginning of the end to Communism in Europe, Polish Catholics are now embroiled in a fight the West knows all too well: A fight against the secular culture. It is a fight that radio/TV talk show host and media expert Teresa Tomeo takes to heart in her book, Extreme Makeover: Women, Transformed by Christ, Not Conformed to the Culture (Ignatius Press) International Fellowship of Christians and Jews Rushing Aid to Communities in Southern Israel11/19/2012 The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews (The Fellowship) announced an increased funding of emergency aid for families in southern Israel and new security projects to assist communities in the line of fire. Rocket attacks on cities in southern Israel are continuing as the IDF launches a wide assault on terrorists and military infrastructure in Gaza Strip. The deepening crisis created by the civil war in Syria poses a major threat not only to the continued existence of that nation but to the stability of an already chaotic Middle East. This story and the following other stories cover the growing Christian ministry to thousands of Syrian refugees fleeing into neighboring countries. Palestinian terrorists fired a rocket aimed at Jerusalem on Friday, setting off air raid sirens throughout the city and opening a new front in three days of fierce fighting between Israel and Hamas terrorists in the Gaza Strip.

Now, the 94-year-old evangelist is under fire for newspaper ads that compelled voters to cast their ballots based on biblical principles.
A group of atheists is taking the Internal Revenue Service to court over its failure to enforce electioneering restrictions against churches and religious organizations, including the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. A "watershed case" regarding freedom of expression on the subject of homosexuality was handed down in Canada this fall, giving hope to religious liberty advocates in the United States who say the ruling could impact future U.S. decisions. "Matters of morality, including the perceived morality of certain types of sexual behavior, are topics for discussion in the public forum. Freedom of speech does not just protect polite speech," Alberta Appeals Court Justice Clifton O'Brien wrote in the ruling. This Gospel of John Bible study presents a profound perspective of Jesus Christ and your relationship to Him. This challenging study format is suitable for individual daily study or weekly group reviews. It offers you a great opportunity for personal growth. In Chapter Two we see Jesus perform his first miracle and later get very mad. Why did Jesus get angry? Was it because of the miracle or something else?
