Dear Linda,
Your leadership retreat was instructive on so many levels — it is obvious that you are in the middle of God’s will for you.
In a parking lot the other day, I listened to a replay of President Obama’s speech to a gay, lesbian, bi-sexual and transgender crowd on the radio. While listening, I noticed the store in front of me had colored flashing lights advertising their sale items. As I heard the President speak about “equality for all,” a sadness came over me… and a dread for what lies ahead for our “free” nation. The depth and breadth of deception among every segment of society — good people, mostly — is staggering. The flashing colored lights right in front of me could have read: “Gay orgy inside at 9 p.m.” and nobody would think it odd.
Work like yours will have an impact on young men and women who are marginal — who question who they are as they try to find their place in the culture. This work is critical — teaching the “truth alternative.” The floodgates are open now, the deceiver is laughing at the righteous. But the Word of God is life-giving and sharper than any two-edged sword, plunging to the soul and spirit as if to divide them.
God has prepared you for this time of moral anarchy. As you sat completely composed in your darling armchair teaching us how to lead women and girls into the truth of who they are, I thought of the hours/years you must have been on your knees to be able to so beautifully reflect God. It is my privilege to know and partner with you in this great ministry to man: male and female.
