‘Tis the Season — “Hope and Joy”

Since the midterm elections, many conservatives have been disappointed.

Why is our country so divided along […]

Be Ready

Liz Cheney is a mother and a wife and for that, she should be respected. She is also a throwback to the “Neo-Con” days of Casper Weinberger, the Bush’s—father and son, and her father Richard Cheney—”the Big D” as he is known in RINO circles today—one of our current Idaho Senators used that identifier for […]

Our Return to Egypt?

Many years ago, I read a Sermon by Joseph Franks entitled “IT WAS EASIER FOR ISREAL TO ESCAPE EGYPT THAN IT WAS FOR EGYPT TO ESCAPE ISREAL” The point of the article was that it oftentimes is easier to escape physical oppression and yes even slavery—the Israelites were slaves of Pharaoh’s—than it is to escape […]

WE ARE “The Man in the Ring”

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who […]

“Idaho Ranks 48th in Mental Illness” Why?

Sometimes I have to sit back and try to understand why good Christians only seem to be good on Sundays at church when I hear about the protest for a new rescue mission at the old Salvation Army center in Boise. We know there is a homeless problem in our state capital and we know […]

Fake News is the ‘Second Team’

Thanks to our great President Donald Trump the “fake news” has been exposed for being the scandalmongers and pamphleteers that they really are.
