Truth Project

Everyday I go through a process of reading and researching to find things I would consider worthy of letting you know about. The reason being that I feel that our world is straying further and further from the truth and needs to get back on track. I need to get back on track. It is good when I receive comments that contradict me because it helps be grow. It is better when I receive comments that are encouraging me. But it is awesome when I come across an article that reconfirms that I'm on the right track...

Focus on the Family has recently began what they call The Truth Project. It is designed to bring truth back into this truth deprived world
"With so few Christians having an accurate biblical worldview, many in the church are living lives that are, in many ways, undistinguishable from lives of non-believers," said Dr. Del Tackett, senior vice president of Focus on the Family and The Truth Project conference host and speaker, in a released statement.

A Barna Group survey in 2003 discovered that only 9 percent of born-again Christians have a biblical worldview. A more recent Gallup Poll found that about 3 out of 10 Americans continue to profess belief in a literal Bible today, which accounted a 10 percent drop over the past three decades.
So the site has several video lessons set up to teach us the fundamentals. I plan on checking it out more thoroughly as soon as I can. If I find it to be wanting I'll let you know. Until then pray that there is more of a hunger for truth in our world as the days get shorter.
