The Zelensky Debacle: Why Character Matters
Last night President Trump made his triumphant return to speak to a joint session of Congress. The speech was combative, visionary, moving, and the longest ever by a sitting president (one hour and forty minutes).

Be encouraged–and continue to pray.

Keep your eyes on Israel. And don’t believe the lies about the Jews, Gaza, and Hamas. Read More
