As we look at all that is going on around us in our culture (and there's a lot!) we need to view it through this lens of hope.

I have been thinking about Tolkien's words that history is one long defeat with only occasional glimers of final victory. I have to remind myself that Christ has won the war, though He asks us to keep fighting the daily battles.
