CULTURE WAR
I like to focus the first article of the year on what I see coming in our world. As 2024 begins, I have begun my eighth decade and released my life story in One Small Life: Revival Adventures from My Fifty Year Journal. Thus, I’m looking at history from an older man’s vantage point. Yes, our “world…

Why is the Western World, and the United States in particular, disintegrating so rapidly into chaos and authoritarianism? I often point out its origin–Satan and the demonic world–which most media ignore, but also seek to analyze the human angle. Recently, I read an article by Mike Gonzalez that made clear the ideology causing clashes in…

I was upset with Rep. Matt Goetz R-FL when he used the new House rules (with the support of seven others) to oust Kevin McCarthy as Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives. Republican infighting ensued causing numerous speaker nominees to be rejected. I felt that could damage a much needed “red wave” in the…

This past week Majority leader Chuck Schumer D-NY changed the 234-year old dress code for the United States Senate. Senators will now be able to wear whatever they want on the chamber floor after Schumer directed the sergeant at arms not to enforce the Senate’s informal dress code. Poof.

On November 5, 2008, while taking a prayer walk through the east Texas prairie, God spoke to my heart: “The world is about to change.” I took it as a prophetic glimpse of the future and began to share the warning everywhere I went. I thought at that time that an economic crash might be…

The battle in our world since the Fall has been a clash between the forces of fear and faith. The current U.S. cultural civil war, swirling around the alleged corruption of the Biden family and the weaponization-of-government against former President Trump, can be depressing. Much media coverage caters to anger and fear. After Labor Day,…

A couple of years ago, a spiritual leader publicly questioned my teachings on America’s faith-based values and heritage. I was surprised by the unsolicited attack. The leader accused me of teaching “Christian nationalism”–a term I had never heard before. After hearing this phrase become mainstreamed in our culture over the past few years. I understand…

Yesterday was Independence Day in America, the 247th birthday of our country. I spent the last twenty-four hours thinking about the USA, praying for our country, visiting the local cemetery to honor those who’ve gone before, and listening to all the fireworks until late last night. I hope many Americans shared my thoughts on this…

For years I shared the message of Jeremiah around the United States and in other nations of the world. The prophet spent four decades warning the Hebrew people that four sins were hastening their demise as a nation: 1) Idolatry–putting other things before God, 2) Religious perversion–compromising true worship and practice, 3) Seared Consciences–the blurring…

If you’re like me, you might find it difficult at times to stay positive and balanced while gazing at the precipitous decline of Western and American culture around you. Watching the news is depressing. Evil forces have been unleashed in our world (through human choices) to destroy people and nations from within. It wouldn’t take…
