Military Marriage: Special Assignment
John Cook, an Army colonel and chaplain who has been married for 22 years, describes the greatest challenge military couples face as: “long and frequent deployments that tear at the fabric of close relationships.” While remembering those who serve our country on Veteran's Day, also remember military marriages that face numerous challenges such as the pressure of parenting solo, living far from extended family, and fears about unfaithfulness. Here are ways for military couples, and all couples, to build strong marriages.

Is Jesus The Only Way
A report by the Pew Research Center revealed some interesting stats: 57 percent of the evangelical surveyed reported believing that "many religions can lead to eternal life." But that result was not as surprising as another: 21 percent of those who identified themselves as "atheist" said they believe in a God or universal spirit. One must wonder whether many of those polled understood what it means to be an evangelical or an atheist. I also suspect that Kelly Boggs is correct that many evangelicals confused the term "religion" with "denomination" -- which, if true, casts doubt on the validity of the 57 percent figure.

Southern Baptists and the General Culture: Marching to a Different Beat
LifeWay Research, a division of LifeWay Christian Resources of the Southern Baptist Convention, has released some interesting results from its in-depth surveys of Southern Baptist pastors across the nation. Eighty percent of Southern Baptist pastors say that they currently support and plan to vote for Senator John McCain (R-AZ), the presumptive 2008 Republican nominee for president. Conversely, only one percent expressed their intention to vote for Senator Barack Obama (D-IL) and zero percent supported Senator Hillary Clinton (D-NY).
