I’m struggling. Struggling with feelings of anger, frustration, appallment, disappointment, fear, sadness, etc., in regards to both our nation (the U.S.) and the invasion of the U.S. Capitol building by mostly-pro-Trump protesters on Jan. 6. (And it was neither an attempted “coup” nor “domestic terrorism”, by the way.) On the other hand, the Bible says […]
As with yesterday’s bonus post, today’s post is a citation of recent Facebook comments by Scott Klusendorf, President of Life Training Institute, the formatting of which I have adjusted for readability. “Yesterday, a pastor of a politically diverse congregation asked what he should say to his people about voting. Here is what I sent him… […]
Tonight’s bonus post is the first of two commentaries from Scott Klusendorf, President of Life Training Institute. Though it is pretty much quoted verbatim, I have taken the liberty of adjusting the formatting a little for readability…. “Here’s what I’ve never understood about evangelicals who endorse Biden: Why is Donald Trump’s character an obstacle to […]
Despite the Judeo-Christian beginnings of the United States of America, there are some Americans these days who want to silence and marginalize Christians. (See my last couple posts.) While claiming to be “tolerant”, many will use bullying tactics to do so. (I suspect I’m not telling you anything new, here.) Yet, some Christians seem to […]
Mikey Weinstein is at it again. Here’s what happened… The Marine Corps had some training scheduled for JAG reservists. One of the sessions was to be presented by Jay Lorenzen, a retired Air Force chaplain currently working with Cru. The lesson was supposed to be a “virtual battlefield tour of Gettysburg using a video from […]
“God gives us freedom to grieve; he gives us freedom to be angry. But he doesn’t give us freedom to sin while we are grieving and while we are angry.” — Samuel Sey Lately, I’ve been getting caught up on some blogposts by Samuel Sey. You might remember the name, since I’ve quoted and linked […]
“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” — John Adams, 2nd President of the United States Over the past several weeks, I have shared portions of Dennis Prager’s Still the Best Hope — twice from the section on Leftism and once […]
From Dennis Prager’s Still the Best Hope: Why the World Needs American Values to Triumph, this week’s post is from the section on Islam and Islamism. Prager examines the Palestinian refugee problem and its real function within the Muslim obsession with destroying the Jewish State of Israel. You may be surprised… “Much of the Islamic […]
This week I offer another citation about Leftism from Dennis Prager’s Still the Best Hope: Why the World Needs American Values to Triumph, in which he addresses a particular apparent inconsistency between the values and actions of those on the Left. Good questions, helpful answers. “Another revealing example of the moral confusion of the Left […]
“The Left-wing assault on God and religion, specifically Christianity, has left Europe morally weakened and secularism has bred a crushing materialist ennui.” — Dennis Prager Back in Jan. 2013, I bought Still the Best Hope: Why the World Needs American Values to Triumph (2012), a book by conservative radio talk show host and writer Dennis […]
