Dear Friend of ChristianGovernance,
We are quickly approaching the end of another year, so some of us are looking back at 2012 to see what we’ve accomplished – and probably some of what we didn’t accomplish that we had hoped to do. You can keep the 2nd list short by not having any expectations, but that doesn’t work well for ambitious people. “Fail forward” is a popular saying – if you fail, learn from your mistakes, get up and keep going.

We are asking you to pray. If you have read a copy of our booklet, “The Biblical Legacy of Canada’s Parliament Buildings,” you will know that a clear Gospel message can be seen in the selection of Scriptures that are found primarily on the Tower of Peace and Victory (the Peace Tower). We bring out that message in the course of discussing the Scriptures and some Canadian history in this booklet.

ChristianGovernance is excited to begin reporting on the plans for our third annual Biblical worldview event. It’s taking place, Lord willing, on April 20th, 2013 @ the same Ottawa location as last year: the banquet hall of Our Lady of the Visitation Catholic Church, 5338 Bank St.

Last year, NCFIC held a conference on “Gospel-Centered Marriages for a Glorious Church.” The excellent line-up of speakers included home school leader, Kevin Swanson. In his first talk, he emphasized that relationships are just as important as theology and issues. In that context, he talked about the importance of building and nurturing relationships among Christians.
ChristianGovernance eletter – November 15, 2012
Many Christians in positions of influence today, and many other Christians, seem preoccupied with strategies to build networks and linkages with the adherents of other religions.
This is different from the building of ordinary relationships. The latter is a good thing and the normative way to build opportunities for evangelism as well as to build civilization.The latter is problematic, and quite different from the example left for us by Paul in Acts 19.

Reader feedback on Acts and deacon Stephen
Subject: Did Deacon Stephen commit suicide?
WOW! Amen to your unpolitically correct analysis of Acts… – QC

Did Stephen commit suicide?
The first seven chapters of Acts are amazing in their record of bold, in your face, joyful, fearful, sacrificial, worldview-oriented Christian living.
I read Acts a few months ago, and picked up on things I’d never noticed before.
I’m reading the book again, and I’m stuck on the first seven chapters.
