Hi, this is TheCandidConservative with today’s minute…

You don’t have to be a genius to recognize our world is growing darker.  That comes as no surprise to those operating from a Christian value system.  You know, the one upon which our systems of governance, education, medicine, industry, morals, and about everything else were formed.  The handbook for the Christian faith, the Bible, is pretty clear about how things go when we step away from God’s commandments and toward the seven deadly sins.  That one sentence pretty well defines today’s world culture.  It’s discouraging to note we probably can’t stop that slide, but that should not translate into despair.  In God’s world opportunity always, and I repeat that, always hides amidst misery.  Add the fact that evil brightens the light with its darkness, and there are plenty of moments ahead to make a difference and experience a rich life.  Especially if you’re working to be one of those points of light giving grief to the darkness.

I’m Dr. Carl Mumpower and you just spent a minute with a candid conservative…
