No, MSM—Obama is NOT the Messiah & Holder is NOT Moses

No, MSM—Obama is NOT the Messiah & Holder is NOT Moses

June 13, 2013 at 5:00 am

For a country that seems to be moving farther into secularism, there certainly seems to be an abundance of Biblical references to shape and spin the Obama administration. In the months following President Obama’s inaugurations, people like Jamie Foxx acclaiming Obama as our “savior” and many other references have been [...]

 
The Sterilization of Patriotism

The Sterilization of Patriotism

May 5, 2013 at 5:00 am

Recently when I watched the dedication ceremony of the Bush Library, I listened to George W. Bush, one of our nation’s most humbled past Presidents, and my mind longed for the days of deeply convicted and sincere presidencies. One of the comments President Bush was about his guiding principle: “To [...]

Guess Who’s Paying For Biden’s Guest Cottage? (Hint: WE ARE)

There was a time, prior to 2008, when having rental properties was one of the best investments a person could have in their portfolio.  It was a fairly safe way to exercise our capitalistic beliefs and feel like we were moguls, even if we weren’t.  Owning a rental was something [...]

How Churches Can “Fire” Washington

Have you ever been a part of a project at work or maybe part of an organization, where you just came to a point with your partners and said, “Thanks for your participation, I’ll take it from here”? You just knew, deep inside your gut, you could do the job [...]

 
Educational Success – The Eighth Deadly Sin

Educational Success – The Eighth Deadly Sin

March 27, 2013 at 5:00 am

“You are the person who has to decide whether you’ll do it or toss it aside; you are the person who makes up your mind.  Whether you’ll lead or will linger behind.  Whether you’ll try for the goal that’s afar or just be contended to stay where you are”.  Edgar [...]

 
Conservative Americans:  Fed Up Yet?

Conservative Americans: Fed Up Yet?

March 24, 2013 at 5:00 am

Over and over again, I ask myself when will conservative Americans be fed up with the way society is moving.  Aren’t we tired of this yet? Tired of things in Congress always being “conservatives fault”; tired of having to apologize for standing up for conservative beliefs and traditional values? When [...]

Dennis the Menace in North Korea: Ignorantly Harmful?

March 6, 2013 at 5:00 am

It amazes me how liberal American “icons” feel the great need and desire to raise themselves to the level of U.S. Diplomats when dealing with foreign dictators.  What is it in the mind of liberals that draws them to the craziest of political leaders to support and dignify their political [...]

The “Bathroom Bill”: Flushing Our Rights Away

March 1, 2013 at 5:00 am

In this world of technology and information sharing, you would think nothing could slip past any of us who try to keep up with political news.   Each morning, my e-mail and social media sites are filled with articles from various media outlets with an overabundance of information.  Sometimes the actual [...]

 
Dangerous Spheres of Influence:  Does Huma Abedin’s Upbringing Matter?

Dangerous Spheres of Influence: Does Huma Abedin’s Upbringing Matter?

February 19, 2013 at 5:00 am

There is a recurring conversation in our home as to what extent the environment we grew up in effects our life as adults. I believe the environment a person grows up in does affect their decisions and reactions in their adult life extensively and my husband believes this influence is [...]

 
The Age of Aquarius Has Arrived

The Age of Aquarius Has Arrived

February 5, 2013 at 5:00 am

The 5th Dimension song “The Age of Aquarius” was #1 on the Billboard Charts when I was a toddler in the 1960’s.   For years I would hear the song on the AM radio in our family car but I never knew what it meant.  Mostly it just reminded me of [...]

 
Where was Hillary at 3 A.M.?

Where was Hillary at 3 A.M.?

January 21, 2013 at 5:00 am

During the 2008 Democratic presidential primaries, Hillary Clinton ran what some believed to be an effective campaign ad, assuring voters that if a call came into the Oval Office at 3am, Hillary was the person America should want on the other end of the line.  Here is the commercial: So [...]

 
Where Are You, Christmas?

Where Are You, Christmas?

December 22, 2012 at 4:00 am

As a child, I remember Christmas being festive and joyous.  It was a time filled with sparkling decorations not only at home but also in every store we entered, with the air filled with Christmas music and unafraid store clerks wishing each of their customers a Merry Christmas. This year, [...]

TIME (Warped) Magazine

December 21, 2012 at 5:00 am

As a child I remember going into my parent’s room always sure to find the most recent edition of TIME Magazine sitting on top of the stack of mail.  The most interesting section of the magazine to me was the “Milestones” section.  I would read a synopsis of the top [...]

What’s Up With Angus T. Jones From “Two and a Half Men”?

November 30, 2012 at 5:00 am

This week Angus T. Jones, the “1/2” of the TV show “Two and a Half Men”, created a stir when he openly began speaking of his recent awareness of God and a relationship with Him.  The stir wasn’t so much that he had decided upon having a relationship with God [...]

 
Take Nothing for Granted

Take Nothing for Granted

November 22, 2012 at 5:00 am

This time of year is so wonderful! The cooler weather, shorter days, and changing leaves; yes, even in the Southwest, some of us have the chance to enjoy the changing of leaves. Even more enjoyable and special is the outpouring of thankfulness which society overflows with so freely.  In a [...]
