The Pope's Solution for Warming: Pray
Holman Jenkins, Jr., The Wall Street Journal
But changing lifestyles and the means of production and militating against inefficiency is what the global economy, about which he seems so ambivalent (at best), does every livelong day. Last year the 20 biggest economies produced 3.3% growth with zero increase in emissions over 2013. One reason was American fracking. Another reason was China's nascent shift from an export-oriented, goods-producing economy to one more focused on services and domestic consumption.
The encyclical's footnotes say a lot about this pope
John L. Allen Jr., Crux
With Laudato Si, Francis effectively has pioneered a new model for the development of official Catholic teaching, one in which the Church's center takes its peripheries seriously indeed.
The first encyclical wholly from Francis overturns expectations
CNA/ETWN News
The first encyclical wholly from Francis overturns expectations'Laudato si' is not only an example of the Magisterium's social teaching: it also represents the birth of a new literary genre among papal documents. Normally in the modern epoch, Popes have included in encyclicals doctrinal themes. But 'Laudato si' is not a doctrinal text — it is rather a pastoral letter based on the classical Latin American method: see, judge, act.
The Vatican Takes on Climate Change: Making Sense of the Pope's Encyclical
Stewart M. Patrick, Council on Foreign Relations
As the head of the Catholic Church and Christendom's most prominent leader, the pope wields unrivaled spiritual and moral authority within conservative U.S. faith communities—including many that tend to vote Republican. Francis's encyclical does what scientists cannot: offer a rationale for climate change action grounded in theology and morality.
Brother Glum, Mother Earth
Steven Malanga, City Journal
But the nearly 38,000-word document—most of which is not about climate change—actually reads like a giant step backward for the Church's social teaching: a rejection of technological progress; a dark, narrow vision of human nature that ignores the enormous gains the world has made in alleviating human suffering; and an almost antihuman call, reminiscent of the most radical environmentalists, to reduce human activity drastically as the only way to save the planet.
Environmentalists praise, climate change doubters downplay Pope Francis' environment encyclical
Mark Schleifstein, The Times-Picayune
The reaction to Pope Francis' ground-breaking encyclical urging efforts to curb climate change and protect the environment have been predictable, with environmental groups supporting the 190-page message and those who question the effects of global warming dismissing his missive.
Pope Francis Uses Encyclical To Deliver Moral Message On Climate Change
Melissa Block, National Public Radio
The pope is directing this encyclical not just to Catholics, but as he puts it, to every person living on this planet. To talk more about Pope Francis's message, we called on John Carr. He directs Georgetown University's Initiative on Catholic Social Thought and Public Life.
Obama on Pope Francis' Encyclical on Climate Change
As Pope Francis so eloquently stated this morning, we have a profound responsibility to protect our children, and our children's children, from the damaging impacts of climate change. I believe the United States must be a leader in this effort, which is why I am committed to taking bold actions at home and abroad to cut carbon pollution, to increase clean energy and energy efficiency, to build resilience in vulnerable communities, and to encourage responsible stewardship of our natural resources. We must also protect the world's poor, who have done the least to contribute to this looming crisis and stand to lose the most if we fail to avert it.

The New Climate Economy
Climate change affects not only Creation, but also our neighbors – our fellow men, women and children – who are already impacted by droughts, hunger, and hurricanes," said President Felipe Calderón, Chair of the Global Commission on the Economy and the Climate. "If we do not act now, it will be them, the poor, the hungry, that will suffer most.
Pope Francis Calls for Climate Action in Seminal Encyclical
Environmental and Energy Study Institute
The Pope, with his scientific background as a chemist, and with guidance from a handful of scientists and economists, explores all the issues related to climate change—from its causes to its impacts. Within the first few pages, Pope Francis lays out the major environmental problems that are affecting our world, including pollution and climate change, the depletion of natural resources, and the loss of biodiversity.

Pope Francis Takes on Climate Change
Pope Francis, who studied chemistry in Buenos Aires before entering the seminary, writes that a "very solid" scientific consensus has formed about the causes of climate change. "A number of scientific studies indicate that most global warming in recent decades is due to the great concentration of greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, methane, nitrogen oxides and others) released mainly as a result of human activity," he writes.
United Nations Foundation Board Welcomes Pope's Encyclical on Climate Change
United Nations Foundation
With his encyclical Pope Francis is calling on us to pursue a more sustainable path – for the sake of the least among us and for generations to come. As his namesake Saint Francis said: "Remember that when you leave this Earth you can take nothing of what you have received, but only what you have given: a full heart, enriched by honest service, love, sacrifice, and courage." May we apply what each of us has been given to protect the Earth we all share.
With climate encyclical, the Pope has knocked one out of St. Peter's
Elizabeth Renzetti, The Globe and Mail
It is a rare document that cites The Divine Comedy, the works of Thomas Aquinas and the Basel Convention on hazardous waste. There cannot be many modern communications that, in place of emojis, give us quotations from St. Basil the Great along with the phrase "synthetic agrotoxins."
Pope Francis Quotes Islamic Poet to Push Climate Change
William Bigelow, Breitbart
Pope Francis I's controversial climate change encyclical, which embodies redistributionist economic philosophy in the guise of environmentalism, and wraps all of that up in an eggshell-thin Biblical reinterpretation, doesn't merely draw from secularist philosophy and environmentalist truisms: it draws from Muslim poet Ali al-Khawas.

Former Climate Change Commissioner Naderev Saño, who resigned in April to lead the People's Pilgrimage, said the Pope's encyclical was a "very important message and people should take it seriously."
Tagle tells faithful: Enrich on Pope Francis' encyclical
Manila Archbishop Luis Antonio Cardinal Tagle urged the country's Catholic faithful to "study, enrich, discuss and meditate" on the various points of Pope Francis' encyclical on the environment.
Pope's Encyclical: Pro-Climate-Change, Anti-Population Control, Pro-Life, Anti-Gender Ideology
John-Henry Westen, The Christian Post
In paragraph 50, he derides those who "can only propose a reduction in the birth rate" as the solution. He laments international pressure on developing countries making "economic assistance contingent on certain policies of 'reproductive health.'" He suggests that "demographic growth is fully compatible with an integral and shared development," and says that to "blame population growth instead of extreme and selective consumerism on the part of some, is one way of refusing to face the issues."
Pope Francis' encyclical: a summons to a decision
David Cloutier, The Baltimore Sun
Pope Francis is not the first pope to address environmental issues; Popes John Paul II and Benedict XVI firmly addressed them. And the U.S. Catholic Bishops have been issuing significant documents about energy, natural resources and climate change since at least 1981. So why a full-blown encyclical? And, most importantly, why now?

John Aravosis, United Nations Development Programme
We welcome Pope Francis' engagement on this important global issue, and hope it inspires other world leaders take a similarly strong stance.
Why the Pope's encyclical is about much more than climate change
Belinda Reyers, World Economic Forum
The encyclical points to positive examples of action to reverse the degradation of the environment, to clean up pollution, restore forests, protect species and renew urban green space. This is reflected in recent shifts in the way nature and the environment are included in decision-making of governments, businesses and development banks.
Analyzing the Pope's Encyclical on Climate Change
Responding to the encyclical, Harvard President Drew Faust said, "Climate change is among the most dire and devastating threats confronting people and the planet today. It was clear from the time he chose to be named after St. Francis of Assisi that Pope Francis would demonstrate a powerful reverence for all living things, and deep compassion for the most disadvantaged among us. In showing how climate change is both a threat to the planet and to impoverished peoples across the globe, Pope Francis' encyclical highlights climate change as one of the most urgent social justice issues of our time."
Pope's Encyclical is 'a wake-up call to a world sleep-walking into disaster'
Liz Evans, Trocaire
"Trócaire is dealing with the consequences of climate change on a daily basis. Drought, flooding, storms and forced migration are all on the rise. Although we are insulated from the worst impacts in Ireland, we must not forget that hundreds of millions of people around the world are struggling to survive in great part due to the changing climate."

George Bennett, Palm Beach Post
I have no problem with what the pope did. He is a moral authority and as a moral authority is reminding us of our obligation to be good caretakers of the planet," Rubio said. "I'm a political leader and my job as a policymaker is to act in the common good. And I do believe it's in the common good to protect our environment. But I also believe it's in the common good to protect our economy. There are people all over this planet and in this country who have emerged from poverty in large respcect because of the availability of affordable energy. It creates industries. It makes the cost of living lower. And we have to take that into account as well."
Asian Churches plan to delve into Pope's encyclical
Vatican Radio
A letter issued on behalf the Archbishop of Manila noted that the encyclical does not in any way pretend to resolve scientific questions related to the environment and climate change. "Rather it offers a pastoral analysis and appeal nurtured by the Bible the Catholic Social Teachings, the pronouncements to Popes, and a reading of the current ecological conditions we are facing."

When we turn a blind eye to the suffering of others, we grow numb to something important in ourselves and succumb eventually to a spiritual paralysis.
Whatever our ethnicity, whatever our religion, we all have families we love; there is a future we all want to protect. And no human being can escape the eternal rhythms of life: birth, aging, sickness, death. When we are grounded in this most fundamental perspective of the commonality of our lives, we can rise above any differences and without fail achieve empathy and dialogue.
The discovery of commonalities bridges the distance between people's hearts. Seclusion invariably dims the inner radiance of both individuals and societies. It is the spirit of mutual respect and the willingness to learn from others that bonds hearts together. In the words of a wise person, when you bow respectfully to the mirror, the image in the mirror likewise bows to you.
One who loves nature can cherish other people, value peace and possess a richness of character unfettered by selfish calculations of personal gain or loss. Those who live in a calculating way will end up calculating their own worth detrimentally. Such a life is limited in the extreme. Nature, however, is infinite.
Whilst human society highlights the "distinctions" or "differences" between us, Buddhism transcends all superficial differences and, in recognizing the commonality that all people share as human beings, focuses directly on life.
When people perceive their lives as being at one with nature and the planet, their views of society, nationality and race will naturally be transformed. As long as the window of the human heart remains battened closed, no great future lies in store for humanity. People have to throw open the window of the heart. When they do so, there will be no more hindrance to peace.
We are dependent on the Earth, not the other way around. In our arrogance, we have flagrantly overlooked this. The essential teaching of Buddhism is that the life of the Buddha resides in every plant and tree, even in the smallest dust mote: it is a philosophy of the utmost reverence for life.

Returning to the Land »
"THE CHURCH ENTERING INTO AND IN THE HARVEST PERIOD"
Brother Houteff gave this sermon on Dec. 28th , 1946 on the Church Harvest. May you be blessed.
Matt. 25:1-5 — "Then shall the Kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept."
Again it plainly appears that the church membership is divided into two classes, the wise and the foolish. The wise take no chances; they continually search for oil (Truth) and they fill their vessels with It at first opportunity. The foolish, though, see no need for any more than what is in their lamps; they are satisfied with what they already have.
The oil, a substance which lightens ahead one's path, obviously is figurative of prophetic Truth, Truth that lightens the heart by unveiling the future. Concretely speaking, the lamp filled with oil denotes the individual's reservoir of Truth in action, Truth that meets his needs only for the time then present. The extra oil in the vessels, therefore, represents additional Truth, Truth that takes up where the old Truth leaves off. In other words, the oil in the lamps and the oil in the vessels represent two revealed truths, at two different times, one following the other. For example, while the Judgment for the Dead is Truth in action, the Judgment for the Living is Truth to go into action as soon as the Judgment for the Dead is over.
Obviously, oil that has been consumed, as is the oil in the virgins' lamps, represents past Truth, Truth that has accomplished Its purpose; but the oil in the vessels represents Truth ready to be activated and made to shine immediately after the oil in the lamps is consumed. Since the ten virgins represent the church membership during the Judgment for the Dead, the oil in the lamps manifestly represents the truth of the Judgment for the Dead. The extra oil, that is in the "vessels" must, therefore, represent the truth of the Judgment for the Living, the additional Truth (Early Writings, pg. 277). Plainly then, the lamps gone empty represent the Judgment for the Dead passing away, and the oil in the vessels represents the Truth of the Judgment for the Living going into action.
Since all ten had oil in the lamps, but only half of them had the oil in the vessels, the symbolism clearly discloses that, as always, the whole church membership did not accept the message of the Judgment for the Living. The foolish virgins were satisfied with the Truth they had acquired while joining the church that bore the message of the Judgment for the Dead, but failed to acquaint themselves with the additional message — the message of the Judgment for the Living. Finally, after the necessity for It became imperative, they began to search for It but it did them no good, they were too late getting It.
These were left out with the tares only because they let the Devil sow in their hearts seeds of foolishness, seeds of contentment (lukewarmness) with the initial truths by which they joined the church; thus they mistakenly felt no need of additional light from the Lord. But when prophecy began to fulfill itself beyond their scope of Divinely revealed knowledge, and as they saw the events of the gospel shaping themselves contrary to their expectations, they became alarmed and confused, saw themselves in darkness.
The lesson is unmistakable: Those who for ever feel "rich, and increased with goods, and in need of nothing more, will not get to the "door" on time.
Besides the tares among the wheat, there are idlers, inactive folk who are to be cast out and destroyed with the tares. Let us read–
Matt. 25:14-30 — "For the Kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, Who called His own servants, and delivered unto them His goods. And unto one He gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took His journey.
"Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents. And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two. But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his Lord's money.
"After a long time the Lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them. And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, Thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more. His Lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.
"He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, Thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them. His Lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.
"Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew Thee that Thou art an hard man, reaping where Thou hast not sown, and gathering where Thou hast not strawed: and I was afraid, and went and hid Thy talent in the earth: lo, there Thou hast that is Thine. His Lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed: thou oughtest therefore to have put My money to the exchangers, and then at My coming I should have received Mine own with usury. Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents. For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath. And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth."
From this parable is seen that when a Christian falls asleep, Satan comes along and sows seeds of idleness in his heart so as to cause him to be cast out with the tares. At the commencement of the harvest, therefore, this class of tares is the first to appear as such. It is high time to learn that religion is not an opiate.
There is still another class of church members who in a different way fall victims with the tares. This we shall see from–
Matt. 25:31-46 — "When the Son of man shall come in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then shall He sit upon the throne of His glory: and before Him shall be gathered all nations: and He shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats: and He shall set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left.
"Then shall the King say unto them on His right hand, Come, ye blessed of My Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: for I was an hungered, and ye gave Me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave Me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took Me in: naked, and ye clothed Me: I was sick, and ye visited Me: I was in prison, and ye came unto Me.
"Then shall the righteous answer Him, saying, Lord, when saw we Thee an hungered, and fed Thee? or thirsty, and gave Thee drink? When saw we Thee a stranger, and took Thee in? or naked, and clothed Thee? or when saw we Thee sick, or in prison, and came unto Thee?
"And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these My brethren, ye have done it unto Me. Then shall He say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from Me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: for I was an hungered, and ye gave Me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave Me no drink: I was a stranger, and ye took Me not in: naked, and ye clothed Me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited Me not.
"Then shall they also answer Him, saying, Lord, when saw we Thee an hungered, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto Thee? Then shall He answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to Me. And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal."
The most outstanding sin of the goat class of professed believers is that they are all for self and none for others. The sheep class are the opposite in character. Since those who do charity work are not to make a display of it — not to let the left hand know what the right hand is doing (Matt. 6:3) — and since the system of such benevolent work is clearly pointed out in the Hebrew economy, we would do well to look there for it: "To promote the assembling of the people for religious service, as well as to provide for the poor, a second tithe of all the increase was required.
Concerning the first tithe, the Lord had declared, 'I have given the children of Levi all the tenth in Israel.' But in regard to the second he commanded, 'Thou shalt eat before the Lord thy God, in the place which he shall choose to place his name there, the tithe of thy corn, of thy wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herds and of thy flocks; that thou mayest learn to fear the Lord thy God always.' Thus tithe, or its equivalent in money, they were for two years to bring to the place where the sanctuary was established.
After presenting a thank-offering to God, and a specified portion to the priest, the offerers were to use the remainder for a religious feast, in which the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow should participate. Thus provision was made for the thank-offerings and feasts at the yearly festivals, and the people were drawn to the society of the priests and Levites, that they might receive instruction and encouragement in the service of God." — "Patriarchs And Prophets," p. 530. For this work to be carried out systematically by the Lord's treasury through gifts and free will offerings, sometimes called second tithe, we cannot but do likewise if we are to find favor with God. Now back to–
Matt. 13:44 — "Again, the Kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field."
Matt. 13:45, 46 — "Again, the Kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls: who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it."
These parables distinctly point out that those who do not care to invest everything they possess, if need be, to obtain the Kingdom, are to be cast out with the tares.
Matt. 13:47, 48 — "Again, the Kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind: which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away."
A net cast into the sea naturally catches good and bad, small and large fish. But fish, like all other living creatures, move in families, each species with its kind, and so each time the net is cast, it catches families of fish. So it is that the gospel net in many instances naturally brings in families and relatives all in one catch; that is, as parents accept the gospel of Christ, along with them are often brought the children, and even relatives and friends.
The bad fish represent those who, with no real knowledge, conviction and conversion of their own but through emotion and the influence of others join the church. So it is that those who never studiously, whole-heartedly and zealously take hold of the principles of Christ are cast out, there to perish with the tares. All who are too lazy to study, and who give the Devil a chance to sow devilish seed in their hearts, making them believe that the preacher or the minister will take them through the Pearly Gates, having no experience of their own, are cheated of eternal life; they instead get eternal death.
True enough, the Spirit of God causes people to become one thing, and the spirit of Satan causes them to become another thing, but the difference is discernible only as the harvest time approaches — when the Truth of the harvest is revealed.
From these simple parables comes the fact that Satan raises tares in the church and ever tries his level best to keep them in it. Why? — Let us find the answer in Revelation 12 —
Rev. 12:13 — "And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child."
When the Devil saw that he was no longer permitted entrance into Heaven, he went to persecute the church after she brought forth "the man child," Christ. The dragon, therefore, is to persecute the church in her Christian period.
Rev. 12:14 — "And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent."
Because of the persecution, the church was given the means by which to take her flight from the promised land (the vineyard) into the land of the Gentiles (the wilderness).
Rev. 12:15 — "And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood."
At the beginning, the serpent persecuted the church, but as he saw that the church still grew and prospered, he reversed his tactics, and began instead to persecute the Pagans who would not join the church, and raised ministers by whom to bring in a flood of unconverted by which to paganize the church, so that she could not Christianize them.
Rev. 12:16 — "And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth."
Thus is the church purified and thus are the tares destroyed. As tares they are burned; as unprofitable workers they are cast into outer darkness there to weep and gnash their teeth; as unfit guests for the wedding they are bound hand and foot and cast out into outer darkness; as foolish virgins they are refused entrance; as goats they are sent into everlasting punishment; as dragon's flood, they are swallowed by the earth. But the actual thing that happens to them all in common, is fully described in Ezekiel's prophecy, chapter 9. Let us turn to it–
Ezek. 9:1-11 — "He cried also in mine ears with a loud voice, saying, Cause them that have charge over the city to draw near, even every man with his destroying weapon in his hand. And, behold, six men came from the way of the higher gate, which lieth toward the north, and every man a slaughter weapon in his hand; and one man among them was clothed with linen, with a writer's inkhorn by his side: and they went in, and stood beside the brasen altar.
"And the glory of the God of Israel was gone up from the cherub, whereupon He was, to the threshold of the house. And He called to the man clothed with linen, which had the writer's inkhorn by his side; and the Lord said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof.
"And to the others He said in mine hearing, Go ye after him through the city, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity: slay utterly old and young, both maids, and little children, and women: but come not near any man upon whom is the mark; and begin at My sanctuary. Then they began at the ancient men which were before the house. And He said unto them, Defile the house, and fill the courts with the slain: go ye forth. And they went forth, and slew in the city.
"And it came to pass, while they were slaying them, and I was left, that I fell upon my face, and cried, and said, Ah Lord God! wilt Thou destroy all the residue of Israel in Thy pouring out of Thy fury upon Jerusalem?
"Then said He unto me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceeding great, and the land is full of blood, and the city full of perverseness: for they say, The Lord hath forsaken the earth, and the Lord seeth not. And as for Me also, Mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity, but I will recompense their way upon their head. And, behold, the man clothed with linen, which had the inkhorn by his side, reported the matter, saying, I have done as Thou hast commanded me."
The promise to purify Jerusalem, Judah and Israel stands as sure as any promise in the Word. The terms, Jerusalem, Judah, Israel you know, cannot be applied to anything but to the church, the place where everyone should sigh and cry against abominations. Those who do not sigh and cry are to be left without the mark, and then the angels who have charge of the church smite everyone of them — "old and young, both maids and little children, and women." Only those who have the mark shall be left. They are the remnant. The angels are thus to take care of both the wheat and the tares.
Yes, there is to be a clean riddance of every sort of tare just as anciently there was a clean riddance of all the first-born in the households that failed to paint the doorpost with the sacrificial blood on the evening of the Passover in the land of Egypt. So shall it be at the commencement of the harvest, in the purification of the church: The angels shall smite everyone who fosters the abominations "in the midst thereof."
When is this thorough purging to take place? For the answer let us turn to Zephaniah, chapter 1.
Zeph. 1:2, 3 — "I will utterly consume all things from off the land, saith the Lord. I will consume man and beast; I will consume the fowls of the heaven, and the fishes of the sea, and the stumbling blocks with the wicked; and I will cut off man from off the land, saith the Lord."
Here is a promise that the Lord is to thoroughly cleanse the land, and I am sure none of you will say that these prophecies have ever been fulfilled.
Zeph. 1:4, 5 — "I will also stretch out Mine hand upon Judah, and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and I will cut off the remnant of Baal from this place, and the name of the Chemarims with the priests; and them that worship the host of heaven upon the housetops; and them that worship and that swear by the Lord, and that swear by Malcham."
Not only the land but the people that are to make up the house of Judah, are to be cleansed: There is to be a clean land and a clean people as well.
Zeph. 1:6 — "And them that are turned back from the Lord; and those that have not sought the Lord, nor enquired for Him."
The backslider and the indifferent, those who are unstable and those who see no need of God, are to perish along with the tares.
Zeph. 1:7 — "Hold thy peace at the presence of the Lord God: for the day of the Lord is at hand: for the Lord hath prepared a sacrifice, He hath bid His guests."
This is the long-expected great and dreadful day of the Lord.
Zeph. 1:8 — "And it shall come to pass in the day of the Lord's sacrifice, that I will punish the princes, and the king's children, and all such as are clothed with strange apparel."
Zeph. 1:9-11 — "In the same day also will I punish all those that leap on the threshold, which fill their masters' houses with violence and deceit. And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord, that there shall be the noise of a cry from the fish gate, and an howling from the second, and a great crashing from the hills. Howl, ye inhabitants of Maktesh, for all the merchant people are cut down; all they that bear silver are cut off."
The great crashing shall be from both the fish gates and from the hills — from land and from sea. Both, the servants that bring violence and deceit upon their master's houses, and the wicked masters themselves, shall be punished.
Zeph. 1:12-18 — "And it shall come to pass at that time, that I will search Jerusalem with candles, and punish the men that are settled on their lees: that say in their heart, The Lord will not do good, neither will He do evil. Therefore their goods shall become a booty, and their houses a desolation: they shall also build houses, but not inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, but not drink the wine thereof. The great day of the Lord is near, it is near, and hasteth greatly, even the voice of the day of the Lord: the mighty man shall cry there bitterly.
That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of wasteness and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness, a day of the trumpet and alarm against the fenced cities, and against the high towers. And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against the Lord: and their blood shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as the dung. Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them in the day of the Lord's wrath; but the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of His jealousy: for He shall make even a speedy riddance of all them that dwell in the land."
The time of the day of the Lord is pointed out by increased "wrath," "trouble," "distress," "wasteness," "desolation," "darkness" and "gloominess," — a time in which no one knows what to do to avert disaster, a time of so much fear even by the cities that are best fortified. So far as I know there has never been the like. The world's condition of today is the only condition that meets the challenge of these prophecies. Since this is true, then this is the day in which the Lord is to search Jerusalem with candles. This is the day in which he is to cleanse His people from sin and sinners. It is "the great and dreadful day of the Lord."
Mal. 3:1-5 — "Behold, I will send My messenger, and he shall prepare the way before Me: and the Lord, Whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to His temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the Lord of hosts. But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' sope: And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness.
Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the Lord, as in the days of old, and as in former years. And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not Me, saith the Lord of hosts."
Should we not now consider ourselves the most fortunate people in the world for knowing these things beforehand? Shall we not be glad and thankful for having been warned beforehand that we have come almost to the time of the harvest, and that we have been given the opportunity to make ready for it? Shall we not be glad that we are not left in darkness, and that we are now plainly shown that these are the closing hours of the pre-harvest period, that the harvest will soon begin?
Rev. 18:1 — "And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory."
The fulfillment of this scripture is what is called the Loud Cry of the Third Angel's Message. But note that the whole earth is lightened with his glory. Let us now take notice of what happens after the Three Angels' Messages permeate the earth, after the earth is thus lightened with the glory of the angel.
Rev. 18:2 — "And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird."
Ah, after the earth is lightened, then it is that Babylon falls. Plainly, then, Babylon has not actually fallen as yet. In fact Babylon has not even come into existence yet, for she is yet to mount (rule) the beast (the world). See Revelation 17 and Tract #12, "The World Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow."
Rev. 18:4 — "And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, My people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues."
This voice from heaven, you see, comes to God's people after the earth is lightened with the Loud Cry of the angel. The burden of the Voice is that God's people should come out of Babylon so that they be not partakers of her sins, and receive not of her plagues. If on this account they must come out of Babylon, then it must be that the place into which they are called to come is free from sin and thus free from danger of the plagues.
And where could that be but in the purified land and church of God, where there is no more sin and no more sinners to endanger the peace of God's people? Vain, indeed, it would be if the people were called from one place of sin and brought into another place of sin. As clear as crystal it is that the purification of the church ("cleansing" — Dan. 8:14; Judgment of the Living — 1 Pet. 4:17) takes place before the Loud Cry of the Third Angel's message begins in the world, before God's people are called out of Babylon.
"The third angel's message is to lighten the earth with its glory; but only those who have withstood temptation in the strength of the Mighty One will be permitted to act a part in proclaiming it when it shall have swelled into the loud cry." — "The Review and Herald," Nov. 19, 1908.
Most Christians know that there are two classes in the church — wheat and tares — but few, if any, seem to care. We, as reformers though, especially since we have been given this great light on the subject, cannot afford to be indifferent. We may now intelligently choose to be "wheat" or choose to be "tares." If after knowing this Truth, some choose to be "tares," they, of course, will have gained nothing and need not be surprised when they land in hell.
At the time labor and capital are in a clash, then it is that Jerusalem (the church) shall be searched, as it were, with candles. Consequently, the men who have settled in their houses, those who act as though the Lord has forsaken the earth shall have their punishment.
Not only do we behold and feel the day of the Lord approaching but even hear Its Voice.
(Timely Greetings, Vol. 1, No. 21. page 5- 21)

Unbundling: The process of taking over a large company with several different lines of business, and then, while retaining the core business, selling off the subsidiaries to help fund the takeover.
NITEL faces unbundling - Oct 22, 2009 If proposals to unbundle Nigeria Telecommunications (Nitel) yield results, at least five new telecommunications companies will come into being in this densely populated African country.
These plans follow suggestions by the Nigeria Communications Commission (NCC) submitted to the National Council of Privatisation (NCP) for consideration.
The ball is now in NCP's court, and the telecommunications industry believes that a green light would be crucial to enhancing employment creation, service delivery and competition.
If approved, Nitel would be split into five telecommunications companies, comprising Long Distance Licence, International Licence, Infrastructure (MTel) and DML Licence.
Unbundling may occur when a company purchases another for its most valuable divisions (its crown jewels) with little desire for the other aspects of the business.

River House is a community based centre for people who live with HIV. We provide a large and diverse range of services such as nursing advice, counselling, benefits advice, complementary therapies and educational courses, plus a delicious meal each week day.
River House merger with Cara Trust
During the mid-1980s Fr David Randall, who founded Cara, had been providing pastoral care for people living with HIV/AIDS in his West London parish of St Clement's, Notting Dale. In 1987 his bishop encouraged him to take a sabbatical year in the USA, working as a chaplain in a San Francisco hospital where there were many AIDS patients.
On his return to London in 1988 he started Cara with a launch meeting in St Stephen's hospital, Fulham Road, where he worked for 2 days a week on the Thomas Macaulay ward.
By 1989 the project had moved to a basement in Lancaster Road in Ladbroke Grove, owned by the Delamere Trust, opposite the old London Lighthouse building. As well as offering care to those directly affected, through its AIDS Ministry courses Cara helped to work out the implications of HIV for all churches and pastoral agencies, given the high incidence of loss amongst gay men and drug users, mostly young and unchurched. Funerals, counselling, complementary therapies, community meals, and religious events were offered through a small staff team and many volunteers.
Soon the Basement became too small and the office moved to St Andrew's Methodist Church in the same road. The Basement became the service centre, run by volunteers.
David himself was diagnosed HIV positive in 1988 and sadly died in the Lighthouse building in 1996. By 1997 the new combination therapy drugs began reducing AIDs deaths and Cara's emphasis shifted to supporting people to live as fully as possible. From 2010 onwards our emphasis started to switch to supporting people as they grew into older age with HIV and in 2018 Cara merged with our friends at River House in Hammersmith, to form the new River House Trust charity.

Open Place announcement
Berry Street has made the decision to cease operating Open Place after 30 June 2020. Open Place will continue to provide services as normal during the transition.
We are proud to have delivered Open Place for the last 9 years, providing connection, belonging and understanding for many who have been in institutional care prior to 1990. It has been a difficult decision, but we believe it is in the best interests of Forgotten Australians (also known as pre-1990 Care Leavers) and in line with Berry Street's core focus on children and young people.
The needs of Forgotten Australians are changing and over the next decade their demand for age-related and health services will increase. Forgotten Australians deserve the highest -quality, most responsive services as their needs evolve and there are providers better positioned to meet these needs.
Berry Street is also committed to participating in the National Redress Scheme. We believe this is in the best interests of people who have been in care with Berry Street. It has become clear through our communications with the Australian Government that there have been concerns about a perceived or actual conflict of interest while we continue to operate Open Place.
The Victorian Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) will work with stakeholders to create a new service for Forgotten Australians (also known as pre-1990 Care Leavers) which will begin operating from 1 July 2020. This will include hearing from Forgotten Australians currently using Open Place services. You can find out more at the DHHS website or call 1800 319 520.
Berry Street will work closely with DHHS and the Commonwealth Department of Social Services, which fund the suite of Open Place services, to ensure continuity of service delivery during the transition.

Do you imagine as the weather element can create artwork after the translation process? The artwork is not just a three-dimensional piece of work but also sculptural musical scores which might be heard weird in our ears. The artworks are created as a remarkable achievement of the artist, Nathalie Miebach. Through the interpretation of art and science, Nathalie Miebach creates three-dimensional ornament with full color, every bead, every colored band presents the weather elements which are then translated into musical scores. Why the weather? She said that the weather extremely fascinating.
"Weather is an amalgam of systems that is inherently invisible to most of us," Nathalie said as she performed in Ted in July 2011.
Weaving bead and band are beautifully arranged based on numbers taken from historical and real data such as vertical elements assigned as a specific hour of the day, as well temperature range. The three-dimensional artwork (sculpture) are created not only as data translation related with astronomy, but also ecology and meteorology.
It is crossed in mind, if only Nathalie translated the phenomenon of hydro-meteorological disaster in Indonesia based on the weather data and afterwards heard musical score from the weather data.
I know what she has created was a tremendous leap. Knowing Nathalie almost 20 years ago, I had imagined that she would be a great artist like now.
She is an individual who likes new things and is challenged to explore what are in her mind. She has a lot of questions in her head. I still remember when we often discussed about artwork, perspective, colors, process of making the painting up to the criticism of the achievement in a work of art. She has never to stop learning and to explore after she feels able to do so.
Nathalie visited any performance or art exhibitions to add insight to contemporary art. Viewing artworks directly and discussing with artists enriched her knowledge at art. Locations of the exhibitions which were far away from her resident did not make her lazy. She did it by biking to those exhibitions.
Her interest in art was very strong when I knew her. But during that time, I saw that she was very good at performance art. Gradually, she learned to make sketches and paintings. I still remember when she made hundreds of sketches while studying art at the Indonesia Institute of the Art in Yogyakarta. On the other hand, her paintings are very interesting. I do not know whether she does painting this time or not.
One interesting thing as I knew her, as if we were exchanging our interests. On one hand, Nathalie Miebach also has an interest in social issue. I remembered as she introduced me to see closer homeless and street children in Yogyakarta. On the other hand, I really like art, particularly interior design, and slowly the interest in art began to fade and focus more on social issues of humanity. Meanwhile, she who has educational background in the field of political science also turned to the art world until now.
She is a person who is open-minded to exchange ideas. A valuable experience from the meeting that continues to motivate me until today. She once told me "if there is a will, there will be a way." There is no a thing that we can get instantly. We have to work hard for an achievement. She has proved for herself and exemplifies to those around her, by creating artworks, teaching art and sharing knowledge on art.

Mission Statement: I am dedicated to diligently representing my clients and their interests. My experience, passion, and affability means that you will receive the best care in real estate possible. I receive my gratitude from the opportunities afforded to me by making other people happy in the purchase or sale of their desert home. About Larry: Larry Walter was born and raised in rural Maryland. As a dutiful student, he attended Havre de Grace High School and went on to be a record-breaking swimmer. While in Maryland, he raised two beautiful daughters and enjoyed three amazing grandsons. With his daughters grown and raising their own families, he moved to the Coachella Valley to enjoy the weather and start his second career. For fifteen years, Larry was a certified Water Resource Manager, specializing in water quality, legislation, and project management. This career allowed him to hone is customer service skills, as well as developing rapport with city politicians and representatives. Additionally, Larry has experience in heavy equipment sales and distribution. All of this experience has allowed him to develop a certain practical sense and "big picture thinking" about residential and commercial development. Having developed this fascination with resource management, housing, and construction, Larry enthusiastically selected Real Estate as his second career. As the Team Manager, his past management experience gives him the tools needed to help the team grow, providing new ideas and ways to leverage available resources. With the diverse generations of clients that we work with, people have different expectations of how the process should work. Larry's ability to hone in on their wants and needs and pair them with the perfect agent will make the home buying experience an absolute pleasure for each client. Larry's commitment to his clients, along with his patience allow him to work through every step of the home buying process, from pre-qualification, to searching for the right home, to the final negotiations, he will have your best interest at heart. This is not a job for Larry, it is his passion to see people happy, and living their dream of living in the desert just as he has been fortunate enough to do. Larry enjoys happy hour by the pool with his 3 dogs, family, and friends, as well as camping, traveling. He looks forward to visiting family and friends that are now spread across the country.


The Department of Health have re-imposed a hard deadline of 31 March 2010 regarding the national standards for provider reform which PCTs are required to agree with SHAs in respect of their proposals for the future of their provider arms.
You will be aware that the Operating Framework for 2010/11 set demanding national standards for provider reform which leave PCTs to innovate locally to create a system that best meets local needs. You will also be aware that without prescribing the outcome, the Department of Health has re-imposed a hard deadline of 31 March 2010 for PCTs to agree with SHAs their proposals for the future of their provider arms.
The information is intended to highlight the scale of the challenge facing PCTs, the risks associated with this challenge and how we at Bevan Brittan and Chantrey Vellacott can support you in navigating your Integration Journey both now and in the future.
Together we have a dedicated team of expert healthcare lawyers, advisers and finance specialists who have been advising both PCTs and acquirers on the issues raised by the transfer of provider arms, so if you would like to discuss your integration journey or find out more about our services then please let us know.

Directed motion of colloidal particles in a galvanic microreactor
Linda Jan, Christian Punckt, Boris Khusid, Ilhan A. Aksay
Chemical and Materials Engineering
The mechanisms leading to the deposition of colloidal particles in a copper-gold galvanic microreactor are investigated. Using in situ current density measurements and particle velocimetry, we establish correlations between the spatial arrangement and the geometry of the electrodes, current density distribution, and particle aggregation behavior. Ionic transport phenomena are responsible for the occurrence of strongly localized high current density at the edges and corners of the copper electrodes at large electrode separation, leading to a preferential aggregation of colloidal particles at the electrode edges. Preferential aggregation appears to be the result of a combination of electrophoretic effects and changes in bulk electrolyte flow patterns. We demonstrate that electrolyte flow is most likely driven by electrochemical potential gradients of reaction products formed during the inhomogeneous copper dissolution.

Unit studies are like gift bags filled with treasures inside.
As we pull off the tissue paper, suddenly the bag has turned into Mary Poppins's carpet bag and out pours one thing after another.
We start with a topic such as birds. We read lovely books on birds, go bird-watching with our field guides and sketch book, learn bird calls, make a bird feeder for the back yard, write a poem on birds, learn to care for a pet bird, calculate how much our bird eats, and learn how they fly!
But, now, just as the gift bag seems empty, our little one says, "We know how birds fly. So, how do planes fly?" Ah, airplanes! We begin to pull out more treasures of knowledge about flight. Our joy in learning just grows and grows!
We talked last time about living books because they will be the foundation of our unit studies. Now, let's talk about how to plan a unit study.
We love unit studies in our house!
Even when we use a textbook we add so much "stuff" that is could be labeled a unit study. We have always built our school around living books, well-written books that are wholesome and interesting to read. If you want to take the unit study plunge, then I recommend starting with living books as the core of your unit study.
This is a two-part post. Today we will talk about choosing your topic and books. In the next post, we'll focus on adding all the bells and whistles to make it a unit study.
The best thing about unit studies is that the whole family can learn together!
Start with a topic that interests the entire family. Your son might love rockets and trains, but your daughter would rather learn about butterflies or flowers.
Try to find topics that appeal to everyone. What about studying oceans, birds, knights & castles, kings & queens, Robin Hood, King Arthur, Colonial times, The Alamo, traveling west in a covered wagon, inventions, or trees?
You can choose the topic and share the topic enthusiastically with your children. Or you can make a list and let the children choose a topic.
Jimmy and Shine each walked over to their school drawer and pulled out some books and a bright yellow folder.
Jimmy opened the folder, scanned a page, and closed it. Tucking the folder under his arm, he grabbed several books and workbooks out of his drawer.
I turned toward Shine who was removing her schedule from her folder and looking at it with a puzzled look.
"Is today Tuesday, Mom?" she asked, glancing in my direction.
"No, it's Wednesday," I replied.
She smiled. The puzzled look was gone. She scooped up her books and headed to the dining room table to start her math.
Three things that make our school year flow smoothly are lesson planning in the summer for the whole year, making personal schedules for each child, and creating weekly assignment folders. After I finish lesson planning for the next school year, I make assignment folders for each of the children.
Here's how I do it.
I started using schedules in college so that I could get all my homework done and make sure I had enough time to study for exams. You see, I was a little nervous about succeeding in college.
Creating a schedule each semester worked perfectly for me, but I made an surprising discovery: I liked living on a schedule. Now, my schedules were never rigid and I was always flexible. If I needed to switch things around, I did. You see, I believe that a schedule is my servant, not my master.
I love the patterns and life rhythms that my schedule created. When I scheduled English homework on Thursday mornings, I got my homework done. I didn't put off the things I didn't like, I steadily followed my homework schedule and never had to pull an all-nighter. I was grateful. I love my sleep.
When I began homeschooling, I started a basic flexible schedule. By the time I was homeschooling five children of various ages, my schedule proved to be an invaluable tool in my homeschooling tool belt.
Here's how we used weekly schedules in our home school.
Petunia is a silly goose who finds a book. She carries the book everywhere she goes, knowing that books are valuable. Pretty soon, Petunia thinks that she is wise because she owns a book.
Thinking that she is wise because she owns a book and puffed up with pride, Petunia dispenses advice wherever she goes in the farmyard. Unfortunately, her advice is terrible and brings harm to all the other animals. A terrible accident humbles Petunia and she realizes that owning a book doesn't make one wise. She decides to learn to read.
This book is a sweet story about pride, humility, wisdom, advice, and books. The life lesson Petunia learns is one that the Lord wants everyone to learn.
However, you children won't know they are learning a life lesson when you read them this delightful tale.
It was a very long time ago that I was in your shoes. It was the 1980s and homeschooling was still unusual and quirky. However, when I met homeschooling families, I was so impressed by what I saw in the children's manners, character, and ability to think and communicate. They were impressive!
If you are thinking of homeschooling, I would talk to some families that homeschool and love it! Find out why they enjoy educating their children at home.
In addition, you and your spouse should talk to one another and the Lord about the possibility of homeschooling. This is a big decision--make it together.
Once you decide homeschooling is for you, here's some advice on how to get started.
Maybelle the Cable Car by Virginia Lee Burton is another delightful story from the author of The Little House, Katy and the Big Snow, and MIke Mulligan and HIs Steam Shovel.
Maybelle is a cable car that lives in San Francisco. She has been part of the enchanting city since the early days when it was so small that everyone knew everyone. She remembered the terrible fire and how the city was rebuilt. Cable cars, created to climb up and down the steep hills, were becoming obsolete as the story opens. Maybelle's nemesis, Bill the Bus who makes fun of the cable cars.
The people of San Francisco learn of the news that they are going to phase out cable cars and there is quite a mixed reaction. A movement to save the San Francisco cable cars begins and when a vote is taken, Maybelle and her friends win. They even get a fresh coat of paint.
Cable cars are an iconic part of San Francisco. In fact, they are one of the first things people think of when San Francisco is mentioned.
I love the way Virginia Lee Burton brings these cable cars alive.
Lyle and the Birthday Party by Bernard Waber is a classic picture book about a crocodile who lives with an American family. Lyle is a loveable crocodile and displays admirable traits for children to imitate.
Lyle lives with Mr. and Mrs. Primm and their son Joshua. The book opens with Lyle helping Mr. and Mrs. Primm decorate for Joshua's birthday party. The party is fun. Everyone enjoys themselves, but Lyle is struggling with jealousy. Later, he is so sad and ashamed of his jealous behavior that Mrs. Primm thinks he is sick. After some funny adventures, Lyle ends up in the hospital where he reaches out with kindness to all the other patients. Soon, he is feeling much happier and the doctor thinks he has recovered from his illness. Lyle gets to go home. A few days after his homecoming, Lyle is surprised by his own party—it's been three years since the Primms found him.
More than an entertaining picture book, Lyle and the Birthday Party touches on jealous feelings that most children struggle with and feel bad about, just like Lyle did. This book can lead to an honest talk about how to deal with jealousy and envy.
Why is freedom worth giving your life for?
And, of course: What is freedom anyway?
We often think of freedom as the absence of something: no slavery, no debt, no obligations, no responsibilities.
Instead, let's look at Freedom from another angle: "Freedom to..."
When the Founding Fathers spoke of inalienable rights, they were speaking of rights that God has given to men: the freedom to have our own opinions and talk about them, the freedom to worship, the freedom to protect ourselves, the freedom to pursue happiness.
If government refuses to acknowledge those rights, they will be sinning against the Lord. The Founding Fathers set up a government to protect the rights of human beings to make their own choices and face their own consequences.
As believers in Jesus, we have even greater freedoms.
Since my last child has graduated, I am enjoying the privileged of reading a number of books that I have long wanted to but never did. In this case, it is rereading an old favorite.
Today I want to tell you about Adam and His Kin: The Lost History of Their Lives and Times by Ruth Beechick.
This book is based on the stories in the Book of Genesis and is set in those Ancient Biblical Times. I have read that book dozens of times. I have read the stories contained in this book hundreds of times, going back as far as my own childhood. In spite of this, Ms. Beechick tells these stories in such a wonderful way that I almost felt like I was being introduced to these stories for the first time.
I love the story of Creation. I admire the intelligence Adam demonstrates when he names the animals. I acknowledge that it was sad that Adam and Eve were removed from the Garden because of their sin. However, not until I read the account of these events in Adam and His Kin did I experience so much depth of emotion in my reaction.
I recently pulled out an old book which has been gathering dust on my shelf for years. I've required my children to read it, but never read it myself. When the upcoming movie of the same title was announced, I decided that it was time to see what this book was all about.
Written by an American author, this book is actually set in the beginning of the first century AD. It's a long book, divided into eight books and 81 chapters. It's well worth reading every one.
If you've heard anything about Ben Hur; A Tale of Christ, you probably know about the chariot race. That's how most people refer to it. "That's the movie with the chariot race, right?" While the race is exciting and there is a bit of build up for it, the book is so much more. As a matter of fact, that famous race happens near the end of Book Five, a little over half way through the book.
Our hero, Judah, has been raised next to a young Roman whom he considers a great friend. We learn very quickly that now in their older teen years there is tension in this relationship. Both young men come from great families. Both hold great promise and have much to live for, and lose. Messala, as the Roman is known, does all things for his and Rome's glory, including insulting Judah's culture, choices, and God.
"Coloring to learn in high school? You've got to be kidding! Young adults don't want to color—that's for little kids!"
Hold on; just hear me out! I want to introduce you to some wonderful coloring books, yes coloring books, that high school students can using as effective learning tools. No, they won't be using crayons for these coloring books, they will need colored pencils.
I said this when I wrote this review nine years ago. Now, coloring is popular for teens and adults. Coloring to learn has always been popular in our house.
