The big news this week has been President Trump’s ongoing tariff war with China and other nations. President Trump is hell-bent on earthly greatness in a temporary kingdom that will not last no matter what he or any politician does. God’s people are called to be different and know true greatness isn’t like this world’s greatness: Winning Power Selfish Prideful One of the most basic warnings to God’s people is not to covet or keep wanting more (Exodus 20:17.) As... Read more
This week, the big news has been the passing of Pope Francis. I remember thinking on Easter as he spoke to the masses, “He doesn’t look like he is all there.” I believe the whole world has been watching him slowly fade away with age. The response to the Pope’s passing has been tremendous with people gathering in Rome from every nation around the globe to pay their respects. We shouldn’t be surprised by the death of the Pope or...

Unfortunately, the news has been inundated with the tragic news of two more mass shootings this week, bringing the number of mass shootings so far this year in America to 83. The first shooting this week was the second shooting at a Dallas area high school within a year. The second shooting was on the campus of FSU at the student union building. These senseless tragedies have occurred during Holy Week and are a harsh reminder that we live... Read more
This week, the big news has been the illegal deportation of Kilmar Garcia and other immigrants to a prison in El Salvador. Mr. Garcia has no criminal record in the United States or El Salvador. Although he did come to the States illegally as a refugee fleeing persecution in El Salvador, he was given status as a protected refugee six years ago by the United States. The Trump administration has also ignored legal orders to turn planes around with immigrants... Read more
TheyThe big news this weekend has continued to be President Trump’s tariffs and his flip-flop on them. He continues to push his tariffs on the world like a political bully, even on our closest allies. The worldwide fallout has created an unstable world economy, with the cost of everything from basic needs to electronics skyrocketing. As I write this the president has announced a temporary hold on electronic device tariffs. Perhaps the president remembered his pledge to lower prices for... Read more
This week a lot of the big news has been about the Supreme Court once again. The president has been hell-bent on deporting as many illegal immigrants as possible. He’s even invoked the nearly 200-year-old Alien Enemies Act to justify his rapid deportation of immigrants that he has labeled as dangerous. However, the court did give the president one stipulation, the immigrants had to be given notice of deportation and the due process to contest the deportation. The Supreme Court... Read more
The big news this weekend has been the severe weather outbreaks across the South and the southeast. The event began in the middle of the week and continues to wreak devastation across the South. Many communities are experiencing flooding, damaging winds, and even tornadoes, stretching from Texas all the way across the South and up to Ohio. Flooding is biblically seen as a form of God’s judgment (Genesis 7:11, Exodus 10:22). Severe weather is... Read more
The big news this week has been President Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariffs he began to directly begin a trade war with countries around the world, including our closest allies. The tariffs and their consequences will directly and indirectly hurt Americans. As I write the Dow Jones has already plummeted nearly 4%, and futures markets like the S&P 500 and the NASDAQ began falling within hours after the president’s final announcement on his tariffs. Not only does this trade affect Americans,... Read more
eThe big and tragic news late this week has been about the major earthquake that struck Myanmar and Thailand. The destruction in these two cities has already claimed over 1600 lives, and that number is expected to grow. So far this year, there have been over 130,000 earthquakes, and the number will rise in the coming months. We should not be surprised by these natural disasters; Jesus and the prophets warned us about earthquakes as signs of the last days... Read more
The big news this week has been the misuse of the Signal app for military information communication. Typically, military plans are only discussed on secured military channels or secure government networks. More sensitive information, like strategic plans, is usually discussed in person at the White House or the Pentagon. Face-to-face communication is more reliable and reduces the chance of misunderstandings or unclear information. Needless to say, there has been push back from both sides of the political aisle for the... Read more
