What I told President Obama...

I emailed President Obama through his website today. You can too. Go to this link:

Here's what I wrote in my message that was limited to only 500 characters:

Dear Mr Obama,

I would like to extend my sincerest best wishes for your next four years as the Commander in Chief of the United States of America. I want you to know that while I disagree with many of your policies and platforms, I am committed to praying for you, your family, and administration every single day for the next four years.

I appreciate that you are committed to creating the most open and accessible administration in American history.

Kind Regards,

Sam Chadwell


I plan to contact the White House pretty much on a daily basis letting them know in a very nice way how I feel about it's policies and actions.

Wouldn't it be great if Christians every where literally flooded the White House with positive, constructive criticism...?

Hey, we can take a stand for what we believe in without coming across as fanatical religious zealots. I have to admit it's going to be hard for me to be polite when I'm expressing my opposing views on topics such as abortion, but I'm praying that the Holy Spirit will come through for me.

We all have to pray. God is in control. Proverbs 21:1 says: The king's heart is like channels of water in the hand of the LORD; He turns it wherever He wishes.

Pray Hard. Pray like You've never prayed before. LET'S DO IT, PEOPLE...!

Political Activist Watch Dog

I plan to use this blog to voice my opinion about what is going on in this once great country. I think it is more important than ever for American Christians to stand up for what they believe in and take an active role in influencing our country.

Many of us, Christians or not, are too busy with the details of our own lives to stop and notice what is happening around us. And in this day and age things can change in a hurry, sometimes in the blink of an eye.

It is my desire to keep completely updated with what is going on in our government since I disagree with much of the platform of the Democratic party that is in power right now.

I pray for Holy Spirit intervention in matters of abortion legislation, and other issues near and dear to my heart.

I am standing in the gap for this country. I ask my Family, Friends, and Americans everywhere to join me in holding our government leaders accountable and keeping each other informed of important issues in our country.

God Bless America.

Please Pray for America...! We Are Most Definitely No Longer 'One Nation Under God'

Dear Friends...

Happy New Year...! I'm a little behind on my blogging in 2009, but plan to try to start updating this site about once a week... I'm really going to try to keep the content fresh and interesting this year...

Today's topic is about comments made by Episcopal Bishop Gene Robinson regarding his speaking at the upcoming inauguration of President Elect Barack Obama.

You need to read this link for a little background information :

OK, here's the problem I have with this guy: Forget that he's a homosexual. I'm not even going to address that issue. The problem I have is this 'Episcopal Bishop' reported that he doesn't yet know what he'll say at the inauguration, but he knows he won't use a Bible.

The article also quotes him as saying:

"While the bible is a holy and sacred text to me, it is not for many Americans," Robinson said. "I will be careful not to be especially Christian in my prayer. This is a prayer for the whole nation."

Am I the only one who sees the disconnect?

Gene Robinson has been asked by President Obama to pray at the inauguration but he's NOT going to use a bible and is NOT going to be Christian in his prayer.

Oh, how our world seems to have turned upside down...!

Here's a suggestion for Bishop Robinson: It's a prayer that was forwarded to me via email by a home school mom- It's the kind of prayer that I wish were prayed at this inauguration, and the kind that Believers need to pray every day.

Heavenly Father,

We come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance. We know Your Word says, 'Woe to those who call evil good,' but that is exactly what we have done.

We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values. We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery. We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare. We have killed our unborn and called it choice. We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable. We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self esteem. We have abused power and called it politics.

We have coveted our neighbors possessions and called it ambition. We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of expression. We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.

Search us, Oh God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin and Set us free. Amen!'

Friends, let's start praying for America like we never have before... This is a CRUCIAL time in our country's history.

(Let's also pray for Bishop Robinson...)
