A case for Christian elementary and secondary schools
I am truly amazed at the excellence of many of our Christian colleges and universities. I serve as a trustee of Union University in Jackson, TN, and we have remarkable students and a first-class faculty to train them. We send out graduates who will elevate the professionalism in their respective fields, and will transform the world with the message of the Gospel.

Who's Missing? Whose Mission?
IMB's 2009 theme is "Who's Missing? Whose Mission?" focusing on those still missing from God's family and our Great Commission call to reach them. Even after 2,000 years of Christian influence, more than 1.5 billion people are still missing out on the opportunity to hear the Gospel. Many of the world's people missing from God's family live in concentrated pockets of lostness. About 80 unreached people groups still have no contact with the outside world.

The Fatigue Factor
My husband has a demanding job while I work from home. Like many couples, we struggle to balance our marriage, children, church, work, and extended family. God often uses my children to teach me life lessons. One of these moments slowly permeated our everyday life as I realized how similar I am to a child fighting sleep. How many times have I fought God saying, “But I have to get this done.” God, in His wisdom, designed rest for your good, not to punish or deny you.

Failing economy increases demands on SBC hunger ministries
As thousands of families across America gather around their dinner tables tonight, bow their heads, and thank God for the meal they’re about to receive, a Mexican family will be sending their children to bed hungry. No, this family does not live in an impoverished, third-world town south of the border. They live in New Mexico, where 15.87 percent of the population faces food insecurity -- they don’t know where their next meal will come from.
