As we come to the close of this most exciting year, many are entering the New Year with a feeling of dread and fear because of the things going on in the world.

There are three major fronts on which the church will be mobilizing to fight and to be the light of the world, combating the great darkness of our times. These are a basic part of our mandate as the church and there have been many victories in the past, but in recent times, much ground has been...
