When you don’t ‘HAVE TO’ read the Bible.
When you aren’t serious, desperate for answers found only in the Bible.

— Does it come straight from the Bible ?
— Does it drive you to the Bible ?
— Does it make you want to tell someone about Jesus ?
— Does it help you talk about Jesus ?
— Does it bring new believers closer to Jesus ?
— Does it bring long-time believers closer to Jesus ?
— Does it require explanation by theologians ?

I know I’m not good enough.
I know I’m not good at all.
I know Jesus changed me.
Now I love to read the Bible.
Now I love to pray.
Now I want to talk about Jesus.

ENCOURAGING VIOLENCE
April 16, 2025 By Leave a Comment
Unstable, unhinged, unAmerican perpetrators of increased violence today are encouraged, inspired, motivated, and supported by the increase of angry, inflammatory rhetoric by leaders on the left, including politicians.
The first step to curbing the increased violence is to curb the rhetoric that is becoming more common, and hold those accountable who are hiding in plain sight.

We all need a cause–
— something to believe in
— something to give life meaning
— something to live for
— something to die for
What is your cause ?
How strongly do you believe in your cause ?
Consider the definition of fanatic–
“A fanatic is someone who believes in something more strongly than you do.”
PALM SUNDAY
April 15, 2025 By Leave a Comment
“This Holy Week, Christians around the World remember the Crucifixion of God’s Only Begotten Son, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ and, on Easter Sunday, we celebrate His Glorious Resurrection and proclaim, as Christians have done for nearly 2000 years, ‘HE IS RISEN!’
Through the pain and sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross, we saw God’s boundless Love and Devotion to all Humanity and, at that moment of His Resurrection, History was forever changed with the Promise of Everlasting Life.
As we approach this Joyous Easter Sunday, I want to wish Christians everywhere a Happy and very Blessed Holiday. America is a Nation of Believers. We need God, we want God and, with His help, we will make our Nation Stronger, Safer, Greater, more Prosperous, and more united than ever before. Thank You, and HAPPY EASTER!”
Well, that sounds like it could have come from Billy Graham or George Washington or Abraham Lincoln, or other Godly American leaders of the past.

Palm Sunday, 2025, President Donald Trump posted that on his platform, Truth Social.

There’s more.
This is Donald Trump’s Presidential Proclamation for Holy Week 2025:
“This Holy Week, Melania and I join in prayer with Christians celebrating the crucifixion and resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ—the living Son of God who conquered death, freed us from sin, and unlocked the gates of Heaven for all of humanity.
My Administration renews its promise to defend the Christian faith in our schools, military, workplaces, hospitals, and halls of government.
We will never waver in safeguarding the right to religious liberty, upholding the dignity of life, and protecting God in our public square.”

Thank You, Jesus, for Your Resurrection—and for our resurrection !
And thank You for those words from President Trump.
