There he is in his splendor. What a guy! He’s the man who hopes to walk off with your daughter ... hold on a moment. Maybe he isn’t the best thing since sliced bread. Maybe he is trouble with a capital "T." Or maybe he is a great guy, but just not the great guy God intends for your little girl. How can you tell? In this fast-paced message, Doug Phillips explains that the greatest gift a dad will ever give away is his daughter. He examines the biblical qualifications for suitors and concludes that the Bible does not anticipate perfection, but minimal threshold requirements must be met. He examines the need for careful discrimination for determining if two are "equally yoked" and the doctrine of the "bride’s price." Doug also points out biblical examples of wickedness by fathers toward suitors and urges dads to act decisively, but with charity, respect, and love.

The civilized nations of the world are not acting very civilized. The undeveloped countries remain undeveloped. While scientists warn of changes in our oceans, fresh water, and atmosphere, various governments continue to struggle with petty, local issues. It is a matter of upmost urgency, a matter of survival, that climate change be addressed. Enter this story. The setting is neutral territory in North America. A dedicated group of civil servants and philanthropists begin a project intended to postpone the inevitable: a plan to save mankind. To fulfill this mission these pioneers will need to recruit and educate hundreds of workers. A need for secrecy leads to the decision to research and manufacture materials on site if possible. The growing complex of buildings and warehouses is obvious to the few passers-by. What is not seen is below the surface. One of the new underground facilities is filled with scientists. The community grows and becomes more visible. As the outside public learns of the achievements, certain profit-minded factions secretly attempt to learn more, and become partners, or at least a part. More than one espionage episode leaves the spy with nothing to report, and at a loss to explain why. Throughout this tale, the science and potential result of that knowledge, is thoughtfully detailed. Just as important, the day-to-day inequities in income, education and government are emphasized. While plausible solutions are always based on the philosophy "do no harm" - accidents do happen.

The geographical and political landscape was unique and favorable. Three of the planet's richest had chosen Wyoming as the location for a new community. Specifically, the Wind River Indian Reservation is a sovereign nation and certain liberties can be taken within its boundaries. The village has grown into a town and its small scientific facilities have also grown. Beneath the Great Plains landscape is a massive research facility with laboratories doing research in numerous fields. Above ground the residential layout is almost as large, and includes a cutting-edge research institution. The primary purpose of years of activity and growth has been to achieve one goal: save our species. During the early years the public knew little of this activity. The next generation of activists began to work farther afield. Reforestation efforts are international college exchange programs and stretch to Alaska and the Amazon. World leaders are finally believing in the value of alternative energy in the quest of eliminating emissions from coal-fired power plants, vehicles and forest burning. Nuclear reactors must be built on many different continents to respond to the increasing demand for electricity. Other recent well-defined scientific breakthroughs have become the basis for the outer-space thread. Materials science, magnetism, chemistry and physics contribute to the building of a sun-shield for the planet. It will take many hands to finish the projects world-wide leaders have in mind. It will take many launches to accomplish what Urgent's founders have set out to accomplish. The ambitious citizens of Urgent have invested two generations in the proposition that creative thinking is needed to save mankind. Is that sufficient time?

Urgent LAUNCH: Continuing to Save our Species (Urgent Series, 2)

This collection of essays edited by Larry Pratt of Gun Owners of America focuses on the real issues concerning the 2nd Amendment and the militia: first, that the Constitution guarantees individual citizens to join together to protect life and property apart from the government, and second, the fact that people -- not guns -- kill people. Social commentator Walter Williams stated that: "Among our God-given rights is the right of self-defense. The Founders knew this well and charged Congress, through the Second Amendment, to protect (not grant) that right. Safeguarding Liberty reminds us of that; plus, if America is to remain free, we must not compromise with those who would strip us of our right to keep and bear arms."
