The Next Phase Begins

In 2010, the world caught its breath after the global financial system nearly collapsed. In 2011, powerful trends are converging which will take the United States to the brink financially and politically.  A divided nation, a sleeping church and wave two of our economic crisis are dead ahead.

By dead ahead, I mean they are coming over the horizon at this very moment.  It does not mean that we are going to tip over into a hyperinflationary depression and total anarchy in the next three months.  It does mean however, that trends are accelerating.  The debt ceiling debate has pulled the veil from many American’s eyes. The degree of cognitive dissonance is increasing.  More Americans are overcoming their normalcy bias.  They are searching for answers to some very difficult problems.

The church.  Well, lets just say the the church is still having a nice nap.  The prophets are awakening, but they are having about as much effect as Jeremiah and Isaiah did early in their ministries. That doesn’t mean we stop trying – and praying.  It just means we have to recognize it for what it is.

Deal with reality or it will deal with you.  Until next time, enjoy your family, enjoy your love for Christ.  There is nothing that we are going to go through that cannot be overcome by His love and mercy.

Got Jesus?

In Him,

Doug
