SPOTLIGHT: We’ve Gone Gambling Crazy
Written by David E. Smith
Once a hush-hush activity often relegated to tavern backrooms, gambling is emerging from the seedy shadows and striving to clothe itself with an air of normality, respectability, and lighthearted fun. But, at its very core, gambling is predatory, parasitic, and exploitive.
Ken Darnell returns to Spotlight to share his in-depth, biblical perspective as to why gambling is anything but a harmless form of entertainment. Referencing factual research, as well as Scripture and the Preamble to the U. S. Constitution, Ken explains how gambling usurps the sovereignty of God, disputes the truth of His Word, promotes the sin of discontent, and facilitates addiction, corruption, deception and destruction. After listening to Ken’s comments, you will never look at scratch-off lottery tickets the same way as before.
