Here's Grace to You, Bible teacher John MacArthur.

We want to continue the series that we've been going on for the last few weeks,

shade for the children, or sometimes we've called it the war on children.

I think we're all savvy enough in the culture in which we find ourselves today to know

that there is a war on children.

It is an educational war on children.

It is a psychological war on children.

It is a political war on children.

But more than that, it is a spiritual war on children.

It is a spiritual war on children.
