The Birthday of The King

Gary Bauers of American Values wrote: During a sermon in 1926, Reverend James Allan Francis summarized the profound impact of the life of Jesus Christ.

A Multitude of the Heavenly Host

10 Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. 11 For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. 12 And this will be the sign to you: You … Continue reading A Multitude of the Heavenly Host

Knowing The Father

The other day my oldest grandson's wife - who is expecting (any day now) - was trying to show her mother how the baby wiggled and kicked. But their little girl was either asleep or just not in the mood to wiggle or kick. 🙂 So, she called Daddy over (my grandson) and he put … Continue reading Knowing The Father

Bubble Lights

Christmas on the farm always arrived in great anticipation for me and my brothers. I don't think any of us realized until we moved away from the farm just how dirt poor we really were!

A New Understanding

According to the liberal media, the left, the socialists, the communists, Antifa, BLM global network, and a dozen other entities who are "woke" to the new order of things, I have apologies to make. I'm sorry I'm white, old, Christian, republican, conservative, and privileged (even though I had a job since I was 15 until … Continue reading A New Understanding

It’s Up To God

Gary Bauer of American Values reported in his End of Day Report they are reviewing a disturbing document that was delivered to the Biden transition team.

Christmas Memories

The following I received from one of my brothers: I imagine that most, if not all, of us have some very special Christmas memories. I want to share a few of mine with you.
