Since nobody around me "gets it," I have to vent to you guys. I'm sitting at work weeping for America. A co-worker (an apostate Christian) says sarcastically, "You know how it all ends, so why are you upset?" Well, Jesus knows all and still wept for Jerusalem!

What's gotten to me today is Obama going to the UN to push Israel into a two-state solution, John Kerry pushing to lift sanctions and allow Iran to achieve a nuclear bomb, and then I come across this - a client of ours and their mission statement:

Wesley College is a United Methodist institution of higher education that seeks to be among the finest student-centered learning communities in the liberal arts tradition. Consistent with our Methodist heritage, the College affirms meaning and purpose in life through justice, compassion, inclusion and social responsibility that enhance community life and respect for the environment. Wesley College exists to liberate and empower its students with the knowledge, skills, ethical attitudes and capacity for critical thinking needed to achieve personal and professional goals and to contribute to the local and global society.

I feel like I'm living in an alternative universe. I know many of you feel my pain. Come quickly, Lord Jesus!
