Getting Started

I am very excited to launch this website with Christian. We have been feeling complacent about what is going on around us. We get all riled up reading the newspaper and drinking our coffee but then go on with our lives. Off to soccer games, dance lessons, etc., etc.
I am ready to Stand Up for what I believe in.

As Christians we have let the other voices become louder and louder while we retreat into our churches. Because we are not speaking out, the only voice our friends, family, co-workers are hearing are theirs. No more. Join me on this crusade to be the voice for our kids, schools and communities.

What does that mean in practical terms. Does it mean we yell and argue with those folks who do not agree with us? Absolutely not. Does is mean we condemn or judge those who do not know God yet? Absolutely not. Does it mean we toilet paper our neighbor’s house because they are voting for the other guy. Absolutely not (especially because toilet paper is really expensive right now).

It means being informed and knowing how to make a difference – in a respectful manner.

Just like we teach our kids.

This is an important time in our state. Please do not sit down while our beliefs are being thrown away. Are you ready to Stand Up?
