REMINDER
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails.

Oh Happy Day!


The year is 2013.

The 2008 Elections and the social/athiest agenda in the first year of the Obama administration finally pushed Christians over the line. People had enough and it finally coalesced into action.

No longer pacified by vague promises Christians united and organized on a scale heretofor unseen in American politics. The congressional midterm elections of 2010 were a triumph as social and economic conservatives swept office after office in a mass elevation of values-motivated candidates.

And not just being elected, but really leading! The 2010 congressional session was one of the most contentious, bitterly fought sessions as laws were overturned and sweeping new statutes were passed. When the dust settled, the following legislation had been enacted and Christians woke up to a new day in a shining America!


  • Tough new laws banned pornography and strengthened safeguards so that youth would not be exposed to indecency.

  • The "Family Hour" was reinstated in broadcasting and obscenity and indecency were brought under strict control during key viewing periods.

  • Abortion was banned in all cases except when the pregnancy would endanger the life, the actual physical life, of the mother.

  • Corporate prayer was readmitted to public schools.

  • School curricula were redesigned to include creationism and intelligent design alongside evolution and to exclude sex education and the distribution of contraceptives.

  • Homosexuality was no longer treated as a protected civil right with special protections for it's practitioners.

  • Courts and public buildings could freely display the ten commandments, nativity scenes, holiday decorations and the word "Christmas" was restored to public spaces.

  • And so much, much more!


2013 is a time when America has been restored to Americans! Yea!!!

And during the 5 years the church spent organizing, funding and promoting this extrememly important political agenda, millions of beloved people died and went straight to a sinner's Hell because they never heard the gospel in their hour of need. We were so busy working on public policy that we didn't have the time spread the Gospel Message of "God's Love for the Lost."

“Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and he will commend you. For he is God’s servant to do you good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword for nothing. He is God’s servant, an agent of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer. Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also because of conscience.

This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God’s servants, who give their full time to governing. Give everyone what you owe him: If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor.”
- Romans 13:1-7 NIV

Politics operates like a pendulum... ...Hell is forever.

Pretty much a sinner through and through. I have two daughters and a son. God has blessed me over and over on a scale that defies any relationship to my faithfulness to Him. I'm just trying to do right by the people I know and love more of them better, (while practicing hard at being a grumpy old man.)
