Lost Boys by Cindy McGarvie

Some notes and extracts from the book Lost Boys Bring them home by Cindy McGarvie National Director of Youth for Christ Australia. 

Page 5 Every Christian man, woman and child needs to be trained in spiritual warfare and accustomed to it, or else, like Israel then and now,  we face being taken out by our enemy. 

These are the nation's the Lord left to test all those Israelites who had not experienced any of the wars in Canaan (he did this only to teach warfare to the descendants of the Israelites who had not had previous battle experience).   - Judges 3:1-2 NIV (emphasis added)

Page 7 When people live in luxury, it causes them to become weak, delicate and effeminate. 

Hard times create strong men. 

Strong men create good times. 

Good times create weak men. 

And, weak men create hard times. 

Page 11-13 She gives a number of examples of the importance of "centre of gravity" in warfare then says:

If a clandestine enemy wanted to attack a nation of people scattered throughout the world (Christians) to cripple them spiritually and prevent their flourishing, what would be the centre of gravity to target heavily? I believe it would be the men, particularly the young, vibrant, fighting aged men. 

Page 14-22  Goes on to say plenty about: 

                    * The shocking suicide crisis among young men

                    * Fatherlessness

                    * Toxic Feminism

Page 20 a quote from Mallory Millet sister of Kate Millet. Time magazine called Kate " the Karl Marx of the Women's Movement".

In 1969 Mallory joined Kate's 'consciousness-raising-group', the chairperson would open the meetings:

“Why are we here today?” she asked.

“To make revolution,” they answered.

“What kind of revolution?” she replied.

“The Cultural Revolution,” they chanted.

“And how do we make Cultural Revolution?” she demanded.

“By destroying the American family!” they answered.

“How do we destroy the family?” she came back.

“By destroying the American Patriarch,” they cried exuberantly.

“And how do we destroy the American Patriarch?” she replied.

“By taking away his power!”

“How do we do that?”

“By destroying monogamy!” they shouted.

“How can we destroy monogamy?”

“By promoting promiscuity, eroticism, prostitution and homosexuality!” they resounded.

Page 21 One of the teachings of this radical ideology was that marriage is a form of slavery and forced prostitution and must be destroyed.
