We are praying every morning in our war room here at FGGAM for the end of violent crime in New Mexico. I weep and mourn at the horrendous violence in the City of Albuquerque. When I preach in rural New Mexico, many tell me they will not travel to Albuquerque anymore because of all the killings and violence they see on the TV news. You cannot put a “Chamber of Commerce smile” on this and try to hide the facts! We also have a friend Franchesca Stevens who has had her car stolen three times in seven months, the thugs are ragging against her! When her car was stolen the last time the thieves used a tow truck, drove into her driveway and took the car! If your car is stolen in Albuquerque, you may have to phone it in! Police are so busy they cannot answer all the calls! We know of one neighborhood association that has had nearly 30 cars stolen from over time. Thanks Mayor Berry for your dispute with APD years ago, and costing us, hurting the citizens of this city greatly! APD is dangerously understaffed! My Police friends say Albuquerque is unsafe! Berry and the City Council have ran the Police Department on the cheap! Shame on you and the City Council, a disgrace! It seems they would like another Bosque path or zoo animal, rather than more Police and better pay for our brave Officers!

Also this from Pastor Dewey Moede:
A few years ago after preaching at a church in Albuquerque, I had a man come up to me afterwards and says, “I liked your message, but I why did you preach so much on abortion, I don’t know if this is the place to do that.”
I just kind’a shook my head and said, “This is the place friend, that the message needs to be heard”
If not the Church, who? where?
That of course did not stop me, in fact it probably has intensified my preaching for the sanctity of life!
I like to say as the pulpit goes, the country goes…..and look what we got!
Killing baby after baby…….
Laura Rosecrans of The HUB of New Mexico forwarded me this excellent post from Care Net:
A great axiom of ministry is, “as the pulpit goes, so goes the church.” The preaching of God’s Word in a church dictates how the people view the Scriptures, and it’s teaching. More specifically, what is emphasized from the pulpit is often most embraced and embodied by God’s people. I’ve seen this dynamic play out over and over again. This realization is a heavy weight for any pastor to bear, deciding what to preach on, and what not to.
