December 28 is the Feast of the Holy Innocents. In reading about this feast day on another site, these lines stood out:
“Today …there are values Christians must live by, but living out these values can be painful. These values include integrity, honesty, incorruptibility, concern for others and service to others. These values can put heavy demands on Christians … When we think of the Holy Innocents, while we wonder at the lives of our modern martyrs and at their painful sacrifices accepted by these heroic victims, we should reflect at our own lifestyles and at the Christian values by which we should be living.”
Indeed.
Pushing back against the culture today, protecting the innocence of children, promoting purity and traditional Christian values often comes with a cost. Not everyone wants to hear this message – and they make their voices heard loudly.
However, proclaiming Christ’s truth is all that really matters. Family Honor is committed to doing just that. If you’d like to help us in our important mission, please consider making a tax-deductible, end-of-year donation to our life-changing work.
“Whoever welcomes one such child for my sake welcomes me. On the other hand, it would be better for anyone who leads astray one of these little ones who believe in me, to be drowned by a millstone around his neck, in the depths of the sea.” – Matthew 18:5-6
