hope_over_fear.jpgI've been helping the Matthew25 Network (and their sub-sites, "Put Away Falsehood" and "Pro Life Pro Obama") with some small design projects. Pictured to the right is the design I did for their "Choosing Hope Over Fear For 2000 Years " T-shirt. A few of the other projects that I've helped with are the M25 logo and layout for a simple "Pro Life Pro Obama" PDF factsheet (which you can download here -- it's definitely worth a read if the abortion issue is weighing heavily on your mind).

Matthew25 Network's Mission Statement:

The Matthew 25 Network is a community of Christians – Catholic, Protestant, Pentecostal, and Evangelical – inspired by the Gospel mandate to put our faith into action to care for our neighbor, especially the most vulnerable.

The election of our public officials, and the politics they stand for, are a reflection of our core values. We believe that those elected to public office carry an important trust, as their decisions have a profound impact on our nation and our world.

We believe that people of faith should actively participate in the political process as an important avenue for social change. We are called by our faith to engage in the world as it is, while we seek after and hope for God’s Kingdom.

Therefore, while no elected official will be without flaw, we come together as individuals to support candidates for public office who share the values of the Matthew 25 Network: promoting life with dignity, caring for the least of these, strengthening and supporting families, stewardship of God’s Creation, working for peace and justice at home and abroad, and promoting the common good.

I'm glad to see a group like this forming and am happy to have the chance to be involved in some way.

A political official cannot promote life with dignity if he actively makes legislative decisions to allow life to be destroyed in the most vulnerable state. If there's no life to live in the first place, then how can we talk about living with dignity? How about we start with the basics? By the way, Obama has said that he will make signing the Freedom of Choice Act his first action as president. Hmmm...good to know what his priorities are. Doing this, by the way, would nullify every legal limit on abortion. http://www.lifenews.com/nat4359.html
It's completely contradictory to be pro-life and pro-obama.

President Obama and VP Biden need our
prayers more than ever. There are many angry people out there. God says to do good for evil. As I raise my four grandchildren I have more peace and taking care of my disabled VN vet husband gives me hope. I feel empowered to know that the world looks at America a litte different this night and I thank Jesus for it. God bless you all. We have been blessed with a great leader.
