Hope Ministry

Going back to the basic principle help us our mental, emotional and physical health. Rather than spending money and time to fix the problems, prevention is the key for everything. As Christmas season came back, we need to detox from loaded with stuff from China, we must focus on what is important during Christmas season. Materials can not fix our internal problems that we are aching about, which all comes down to relationship. Millennials are most blessed generation as far as materials goes. They are loaded with iphones and technological items, yet most demotivated generation as far as dreams, ambitions and purposes…. Only way rekindle their spirit is God’s spirit to give them purpose of their lives in numb and dying culture with loaded with drugs, yet without hope. I encourage young parents to be strong and keep your children on your side from this vicious cultural wind and soak them with the Bible stories… they will come back.

David Rubin is a former mayor of Shiloh, Israel – in the region of Samaria, which together with Judea, is known to much of the world as the West Bank. He is founder and president of Shiloh Israel Children’s Fund (SICF) – dedicated to healing the trauma of child victims of terrorist attacks, as well as rebuilding the biblical heartland of Israel through the children. SICF was established after Rubin and his three-year-old son were wounded in a vicious terrorist attack while driving home from Jerusalem. Rubin vowed to retaliate – not with hatred, nor with anger, but with compassion – to create positive change for Israel and its children.

“America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.” ― Abraham Lincoln Freedom comes from individuals accepting the freedom God has given us and delegating to God to lead us. But first, we must acknowledge God who he is and ask him for mercy and grace on this land. Free people free others. When we go to a store or restaurant, we often see a sign like "Under A New Management." We now have new leaders. Amazing characteristic of America is, despite the election, we can still practice our freedom. We can still enjoy American culture, laugh, sing, and dance again. So, as the holiday is coming up, let's celebrate the culture of light. We must unite as family and friends to share love, grace, and joy. Let us manifest our internal joy at family, church, and community. Let us go back to the time like when we visited house to house and sang Christmas carols. America is still a beautiful country. So I encourage every American to be proud to be American. America is beautiful. America is gracious. America is fearless.

Christians Engaged President Bunni Pounds said, “We believe the Church is the answer for America. Unfortunately, there is not much difference between Christians’ voting patterns and those of the general public. If the Body of Christ across denominational lines would fight apathy, take Jesus to the ballot box, and vote biblical values in every election including local elections and primaries, we would see a generational impact on America.” Christians Engaged exists to awaken, motivate, educate, and empower ordinary believers in Jesus Christ to: • PRAY for our nation and elected officials regularly • VOTE in every election to impact our culture • ENGAGE our hearts in some form of civic education and involvement for the well-being of our nation Christians Engaged was founded by Bunni Pounds, a Bible teacher and political consultant with experience running campaigns at the federal, state, and local level.
