Not just in the details...

You know that saying about the devil being in the details?  Well, around here he is more than just in details; somehow, he got into our server!  We regret to tell you that our June issue ... just a click or two away from print and publication, was somehow deleted from the server where it is stored!  Needless to say, this was a shock to staff members who went looking for it to print yesterday.  Despite a frantic search, and without any reasonable explanation, the document has completely vanished.  Thankfully we still have all the submissions and artwork, and can re-build the magazine.  But it means we'll be well behind our June 1st publication date.  At the moment, we're hoping to be ready by June 8th ... but it might be later yet, as many of our staff members are dealing with final exams and graduation/end of year activities.  We'll do our best ... but pray for us!!

And, really, it must be a good sign.  If the devil hates our magazine enough to create such problems, then we must be doing something good!  Blessed be God!

From one of our readers...



Did you know G. K.Chesterton pointed out that the state usurps the authority of the family by compulsory state-sponsored education. "The state has more authority over man by sending him to a public school than it had when it burned men at the stake." 

Also, he showed how it is a step down for women when they claim equality with men. "Their God-given role of motherhood is irreplaceable. Men are specialists, but women have a general and uniting role as mothers. Inside the home is where the real drama of life is played out. If you take the women out of the home, you destroy the family."

Like it?

Blue ... the color of our new issue.  Watch for it in two weeks!

Crazy Busy!

We know, we know... it's been a whole MONTH since we've posted anything on the blog.  Not from lack of interest though ... just lack of time.  Where does it disappear to at this time of year?

Good news, though, is that we're getting the June issue ready for publication in two weeks.  Layout is underway and proofreading will follow soon.  Pray all goes well and that we have the magazine online and in print according to schedule.
