WASHINGTON, Oct. 29, 2019 /Christian Newswire/ -- While presidential hopefuls discuss LGBTQ rights and counseling censorship laws, Christians who have left the LGBTQ life are told they don’t exist and denied supportive counseling. A team of men and women who no longer identify as LGBTQ, including two Orlando Pulse Nightclub shooting survivors and two who have detransitioned, are coming to Washington, DC to tell presidential hopefuls, the national media, and politicians to stop denying their existence and protect their freedom. Coercive proposals like H.R. 5 (the so-called “Equality Act”) and H.R. 3570 (The Therapy Fraud Prevention Act) promote only one ideology and force only one lifestyle as a way forward. Men and women who have opted out of the LGBTQ lifestyle daily face hate speech, protests and discrimination simply for expressing their views or sharing their life stories. Amazon has removed their books, states have shut down their counseling options and their churches receive protests when they assemble together. Their basic human rights are being denied. For example, Article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights asserts:
“Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance.” Elizabeth Woning, co-founder CHANGED Movement, former lesbian states: “There is a rising force today that is eroding America’s historic protections for liberty. People who have sought and successfully gained change in their sexual desires (away from same sex attraction) have always existed, but today we are being censored, and the avenues we have used for emotional health are being shut down. Our voices expose the angry and inhumane face of this dangerous ideological movement.” Ken Williams, co-founder of CHANGED Movement, former homosexual states: “I was plagued with suicidal tendencies because I didn’t want to live the life that my samesex attraction was leading me toward. The talk therapy I received from a professional counselor saved my life. My sexual desires have changed, I have now been married.. Continuation on Page: 2
Saudi Arabia (MNN) — Until recently, foreigners could not enter Saudi Arabia — known as ‘The Forbidden Kingdom’ — unless they had a business visa, an invitation from the government, or were on a holy Muslim pilgrimage. But this changed when the Saudi government made the shocking announcement they would now accept international tourists for the first time from 49 approved countries. Patrick Murphy with I Found the Truth says this is a unique glimmer of hope amidst swelling tensions in the Middle East.
liever ever.” Islam is the only recognized religion in Saudi Arabia. Christians are banned from gathering, but many of them don’t even know other believers to gather with. When the above-ground Church is illegal and the underground Church is scarce, Murphy says, “We now are looking at Church in the sky… and it’s the Church that meets connected on the internet.” Fatima’s Story: Murphy shares the story of Fatima, a woman in Saudi Arabia who came to know Jesus. She didn’t know any Christians in her area, but she found
Muslims in a mosque in Saudi Arabia. (Photo courtesy of Pixabay) “We always know this — the physical war on the ground is just a mere reflection of the spiritual war raging in the heavenlies. God is moving and Muslims are coming to faith in Christ.” With a previously-closed door now cracked open in Saudi Arabia, Murphy says, “Christians need to pray. They need to ask the Lord if they’re called to go and be there and be some salt and light. We’re talking about a country where the majority of the people there have never met one be-
a fellowship of believers from a Muslim background online. “There were prayer groups, there were worship services, and they
were meeting together. Unfortunately, she was discovered by her brother, who worked for the secret police, and he took her life.” However, Murphy says, Fatima wrote a prayer on the computer before she went to her death. She talked about how she was not afraid. She [said] ‘their swords don’t concern me’ and that Jesus Christ was the protector of her life. She went willingly to a brutal death at the hands of her family. “Here’s the amazing thing to us. She is receiving a martyr’s crown in Heaven, and it’s probably the first time…that she met another Christian face-toface.” Murphy says Fatima’s story is common among Saudi believers. “We’re working with the way above-ground churches that are being connected through the internet, and people are coming to faith in Christ. Sometimes, that’s all they have. That’s their fellowship. They don’t have the luxury of meeting with other believers face-to-face. But they have eternity for that. One day, they’ll be with the Body of Christ in Heaven forever.” While the persecuted Church in Saudi in small and hidden, Open Doors USA reports the number.. Continuation on Page: 4

Daniel Chapter 6:3: King Darius preferred Daniel over all the presidents and princes because an excellent spirit was in him; the king thought to set him (Daniel) over the whole realm. We Christians believe that God chose you to be President Donald Trump, to have the position as President over the Unit-
ed States of America. Throughout the ages, naysayers have risen up to try to destroy the works of God. Daniel 6:4: The presidents and princes sought to find occasion against Daniel, concerning the kingdom, but they could find none occasion nor fault; for as much as he was faithful, neither was there error of fault found in him.
When Nehemiah began to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem, a few naysayers began to say, “Nay!” They mocked, accused, and planned an assassination of Nehemiah. 4:1-2.

brings hope and understanding to the LGBTQ communities and the church through education and biblical teaching. We support a judgment-free environment for anyone that wants to seek change, and the freedom to do so without fear of retribution or lawsuits because change from LGBTQ is possible.” Jim Domen, Pastor/ Founder of Church United in California, former homosexual states: “Changing the Civil Rights Act would usurp the rights of countless Americans who are not LGBTQ or who disagree with the lifestyle because of religious beliefs. Ask any Former LGBTQ about the persecution, ridicule, and abuse they have encountered for changing previous behaviors/ lifestyles in America. As currently proposed, H.R. 5, the “Equality Act” discriminates against Formers or others who
practice a different sexual behavior than LGBTQ individuals. H.R. 3570 prohibits choice of therapeutic di- rection from a client - ‘I CHOSE not to be gay and my therapists helped affirm the direction I chose toward heterosexuality’ - this bill would deny anyone like myself from seeking freedom and help from licensed professionals. My wife and biological children are not frauds.” CHANGED Movement is a network of men and women who have left LGBTQ subculture and identity to follow their faith. They are partnering with Church United, a California-based non-profit founded by Pastor Jim Domen- also formerly LGBTQ, that empowers pastors in civic engagement.

Dear President Trump: We understand that ‘there is nothing new under the sun’. Ecclesiastes 1:9. What has been will be again. What has been done will be done again. There is nothing new under the sun. Isaiah 59:19 states, “when the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit

Many of us were suicidal, having experienced broken relationships, abandonment issues, and sometimes physical or sexual abuse. Bills like H.R. 5 and H. R. 3570 promote only one ideology...and force only one lifestyle as a way forward. But, many of us, oncegay, didn’t find fulfillment in our homosexual relationships! Bills like these threaten our safety, autonomy, and pursuit of happiness. We do exist! Many people choose, for one reason or another, to leave an LGBTQ life be

It is scary to imagiine an America where government ideology controls a person’s options...what therapy they can or cannot receive, what sexual identity they must pursue, or what religious beliefs they are allowed to follow. America is supposed to be the land of the free and the home of the brave. I hope our government leaders will not allow our super-minority to be oppressed in America.” Latin American Luis Ruiz, Pulse Nightclub Shooting Survivor, former homosexual states: “If the ‘Equality Act’ and the ‘Therapeutic Fraud Prevention Act’ become law, we will not be able to build our organization, Fearless Identity, that

Counselor’s Corner:
Who Am I? By: Louise Alleva
Email: Louise.alleva@gmail.com
I have spent many years asking that question. Who Am I? How do I fit in? What is my destiny etc. Then when I became a Christian, I started asking the same questions, but it was more of how do I fit in the Kingdom of God? Then one day the Lord gave me a scripture that seemed to be strange but just the answer I needed. Matthew 11:28-30 says “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, for My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” It took me years to really begin to understand how we all fit in the Kingdom of God. But until I began a journey of being a Temperament counselor, I spent all of my time on the same worldly emotional pursuits of how to fit in and find joy and victory in God’s kingdom. By then I didn’t have any energy left to experience the spiritual side of our Lord. You see when people
are physically sick or exhausted, or emotionally stressed or strained, they lack the strength to do the good works that God has given them to do and and lack the strength or willpower to withstand the persecution of Satan, our enemy. This emotion al exhaustion then causes us to begin to have physical problems such as fatigue, high blood pressure, other disorders which then makes us susceptible to other infections or diseases. When this happens God, Christ, the Holy Spirit and the fruit of this relationship seems far away and unattainable. Then we begin to turn our back on God and lean towards our worship of power, money, or other people who are just as lost as we are and no matter how hard anyone tries, we all couldn’t fill the void ourselves. Then comes another roadblock. When we are suffering, we lose our ability to witness to others. How can we speak love, joy and peace when there is none in our

of Saudi Christians grew last year. This growing band of believers needs to know they are not alone. They need the prayers of encouragement of the global Body of Christ. “It should be on our dashboard as Christians. We shouldn’t be far from that, knowing that our Christian experience is vastly different from the majority of believers around the world and we need to pray for them.” Please pray for persecuted Christians in Saudi Arabia and around the world to sense the Holy Spirit with them. Ask God to bless their ministry efforts, whether above gro-
und, underground, or online. Pray for men and women living in darkness to start relationships with Jesus and know His truth. There are several resources out there to help you stay informed as you pray. “Mission Network News, Voice of the Martyrs, Open Doors, 8thirty8 — there are lots of things that the listeners can get on and get upto-date prayer requests. Rather than just praying, ‘Oh, Lord, we pray for our brothers and sisters in the Middle East. They’re suffering,’… get tuned in to some of the news stories. Find out what’s happening.”

First-of-a-Kind Documentary Exposes Sex Trafficking Industry in America Comes to Movie Theaters for One-Night Only Event By Christian Newswire on January 23, 2020
TAMPA, Fla., Oct. 16, 2019 /Christian Newswire/ -- There are more than 4.8 million people being sexually exploited worldwide, and more than one million of these are children (International Labour Organization). According to a recent report by the US State Department, the United States is one of the leading consumers of sex trafficking, as well as leading country of origin for victims. On January 23, 2020, Ships of Tarshish will present BLIND EYES OPENED: The Truth About Sex Trafficking in America, a first-ofits-kind look at the dark roots of sex trafficking, in a one-night-only cinema event. “Once you’ve learned how to recognize human trafficking, you begin to see it everywhere - it’s in every single community,” said Executive Producer of BLIND EYES OPENED and CEO US Institute Against Human Trafficking, Geoffrey Rogers. Six years in the making, BLIND EYES OPENED is a feature-length documentary exploring the growing epidemic of modern-day slavery, the industries feeding as well as fighting it, and the shocking scope of its infiltration into every segment of the U.S. population. Contrasting the darkness, however, the film reveals the power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to bring healing for victims and freedom to the captives. BLIND EYES OPENED will release in nearly 800 movie theaters nationwide on January 23 at 7:00 p.m. local time. For tickets and a complete list of theater loca tions, visit

Districts Deceiving Parents: By Christian Newswire Parents CAN Opt Out of Comprehensive Sexual Education
SACRAMENTO, Calif., Oct. 17, 2019 /Christian Newswire/ -- Many of California’s school districts are currently deceiving parents about their rights under the law. Contrary to what school districts have been telling them, the California Education Code allows a parent to “opt out” their children from ALL portions of the California Healthy Youth Act (CHYA). The law allows opt out for any and all portions of Health, including the CHYA, that conflict with the parents’ religious or moral beliefs. This includes gender roles and sexual orientation teachings. California Education Code Section 51240 states “If any part of a school’s instruction in health conflicts with the religious training and beliefs of a parent or guardian of a pupil, the pupil, upon written request of the parent or guardian, shall be excused from the part of the instruction that conflicts with the religious training and beliefs” or “personal moral convictions” of the family.
“Whether its intentional or unintentional, districts are misinforming parents about their ability to exercise their rights to opt their children out of these topics,” said Capitol Resource Institute Executive Director Karen England. “The deception needs to stop.” The California State Board of Education’s current “Health Education Content Standards for California Public Schools” includes the following topics under “health education:” * Sexual development, reproductive health, interpersonal relationships, body image, and gender roles; * Individual differences in growth and development, physical appearance, gender roles, and sexual orientation; * Individual, family, and cultural differences in relationships; * Health care providers for reproductive and sexual health services; * Health information, products, and services related to reproductive and sexual health; and * Local resources concer-
ning reproductive and sexual health, including all FDA-approved contraceptives, HIV/STD testing, and medical care. England added: “It’s clear the California Healthy Youth Act falls under health and therefore can be opted out of in part or whole. School districts across California are being disingenuous when they are telling parents they cannot opt out of health topics if they include gender identity or sexual orientation. “It is the school districts, their administrators and their teachers that need to be educated here. And that is what we intend to do. Parents have rights and they need to be respected and followed if they wish to remove their child from teachings they disagree with.” We encourage parents to assert their legal right under California Education Code Section 51240 and opt their children out of all portions of the CHYA that they morally object to. It’s time Districts start following the law and not Planned Parenthood. www.capitolresource.org

partnership with Prison Fellowship affiliates around the world to rescue, restore, and rebuild the lives of poor and vulnerable children of prisoners. The program ensures children have safe housing and protection from exploitation, and abuse, as well as proper nutrition, medical care, access to education, and the opportunity to develop emotional and spiritual strength. In addition, the program helps children maintain a relationship with their incarcerated parent, which is vital to their wellbeing. “Prison Fellowship Malawi has been part of the Prison Fellowship International family for nearly 20 years, and their heart and passion for prisoners and their families is at the core of their organization,” said Michele Leith, associate program manager at Prison Fellowship International. “Over the last five years, the child sponsorship program has grown to reaching nearly 6,000 children around the world. With Malawi as our newest program partner, we know that thousands of children who are currently hidden and wondering where their next meal will come from or afraid of what
their future holds will be seen, known, and loved, and have a chance for a brighter future.” The child sponsorship program currently serves 5,716 children throughout Cambodia, Colombia, Costa Rica, India, Malawi, Nepal, Rwanda, Sri Lanka, Togo, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Over the next year, Prison Fellowship Malawi plans to expand care to 300 children of prisoners. And by 2024, Prison Fellowship International aims to expand the program to serve 800 children in Malawi. Visit pfi.org/malawi for more information or to sponsor a child from Malawi.

JESUS IS LORD!
WASHINGTON, Nov. 4, 2019 /Christian Newswire/ -- The quality of life for hundreds of children in Malawi is about to improve thanks to a new partnership agreement between Prison Fellowship International and Prison Fellowship Malawi. After a year of preparation, Prison Fellowship International’s child sponsorship program launched in Malawi on November 1. The program commenced with the enrollment of the first 140 children, who will receive food, clothing, access to education, regular medical check-ups, and spiritual and emotional care. There are millions of children around the world who have lost one or both parents to imprisonment. Many live in dire circumstances, struggling to live a normal, safe, healthy life while their parent--often the family’s breadwinner--is behind bars. Some are forced to beg for food or must drop out of school to work in dangerous conditions. And many are stigmatized and discriminated against for being associated with a criminal.

Plus, the moral problems of girls having to shower with transgenders.” In 2003, McConkey started fighting against the International Olympic Committee for allowing transgenders in the Olympics. He was the only one who stood against this publicly. From there, the transgender movement spread to state high schools, the NCAA, NFL, NBA, MLB, and the military. Steve has fought this LGBT agenda every step of the way. McConkey tried to sue the International Olympic Committee before the 2016 Olympics in Rio.
He was concerned that intersex athletes would sweep the 800 meters. That is exactly what happened. McConkey was told he did not have a case because he did not have a vested interest in the race. 4 Winds Christian Athletics (4 WINDS) is a ministry that stands up worldwide for Christian athletes. Steve McConkey is an evangelist. He and his wife are the founders(1988) of and operate 4 WINDS. They started in world-class track and field ministries in 1981 and have done ministry work through nine Olympics. Steve was a USA National Club Coach from 1982 through 1992, with athletes ranking eighty times. In 2014, 4 WINDS started standing up worldwide for Christian athletes in every sport. www.4windsusa.com

MADISON, Wis., Oct. 17, 2019 /Christian Newswire/ -- The International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) finally said transgender track and field athletes must lower their testosterone levels to 5 nanomoles instead of the previous standard of 10. Months before, intersex athletes were told they must keep their levels under 5 nanomoles for the 800 meters through the mile run, but not for other track and field events. As a result, 800 meters champion Caster Semenya was told she could not compete at the recent World Championships. All of the women’s 800 meters medal winners at the 2016 Olympics in Rio were intersex athletes. Steve McConkey operates 4 Winds Christian Athletics, a Madison, Wisconsin worldwide ministry that stands up for Christian athletes. “We have been fighting the International Olympic Committee since 2003,” states McConkey. “We are pleased with the IAAF decision, but would like to see transgenders eliminated altogether because of physiological advantages that cannot be eliminated by hormone therapy. “As an adviser to hundreds of Christian athletes, we are getting reports of unfair advantages that transgenders have over women.

My Friend Mike’s Miracle Car
I first met Mike Crockett at the Once Again Thrift Store we operated on Cortez road maybe 12 to 13 years ago. Mike happened in and asked if he could ‘serve’ by helping in some manner. And help he was! He was a worker. He would volunteer to do any job needing done and always with a smile. He loved God and it showed in all he did. Fast forward 12 or 13 years to now with my wife Arlyn and I currently working a medicare supplement insurance booth at the Red Barn Flea Market for Open Enrollment. Low and behold here comes Mike into the booth! Praise God! Well a lot has happened since we last saw each other and we were excited to share the miracles we have experienced. One in particular stood out so I wanted to share it with you. Mike being a worker for
What a miracle from the hand of God Almighty. The mechanic called and put a rebuilt engine in it better than the original, a new timing chain and water pump too! God successfully got him back on the road to do what he loves, serving the church and Gods people. Without the car he could not do this, but God showed up and showed off. Hallelujah!! It was as if an angel visited Mike that day. In fact it was a group of men lead by God to help their brother in need. They wish to remain anonymous confessing it was the Lord and they were just the vessels. Mike never gave up, he sought the Lord and He heard him and delivered him! He will do the same for you too. Just reach out to Him and let Him know your need, He is YES! SEND ME HE’S ALIVE EVERY MONTH faithful. BY: +++

By Georgia Yost James 4:7 “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” Excellent book broke down in three parts. The book has inspiring messages. •What the Word Of God is •How to Study •God compared to man •Our relationship to God •Know your enemy •How to operate in God’s authority Christians should know how to fight. We are in a fallen world and nothing here is perfect. God has given us everything we would have need of to live this life victoriously. We cannot be a light to the world if we are weighed down with the cares of this world. I pray this book can lead you to God and find that in Him we have peace, joy and understanding on how to live. With the years of experience I have, I cannot thank God enough for making it possible for me to share His love and faithfulness. $5.99 Order from www.amazon.com
