Made me laugh:
This Is Your North American Mission Board
Church planters are sent out and funded by the Southern Baptists’ North American Mission Board. James Roberson is one of these, and he assists the Board with training. Check this out: Southern Baptists, this is who helps train your church planters for @NAMB_SBC and @sendnetwork. Here are clips from his […]
Francis Schaeffer Interviewed
This interview likely took place on Pat Robertson’s “700 Club”. I found it interesting because I had never seen or heard him speak. Schaeffer was one of the major evangelical figures and thought leaders during the period approximately 40-75 years ago. I remember reading his book, “A Christian Manifesto”, when […]
Residents Show Up Regarding Guilford Property Tax Increases
The News and Record reports. Kudos to those who showed up; and even more kudos to those who made the effort to speak. Recall that we will be vulnerable to property tax increases of upwards of 40 percent with the most recent property revaluations. One of the commenters discusses a […]

Former Governor Cooper Swimming With CCP Advocates
We learn from the Blue Ridge Times that Roy Cooper is tight with a crowd that furthers the interests of the Chinese Communist Party. Why am I not surprised? That is a known tendency of the democratic socialists in the United States.
New Pope A Lost Cause
I was hopeful that Pope Leo would be more moderate than Francis, but that hope was misplaced. I cannot overemphasize how unwise this entire exercise is. He lacks sober-mindedness and wisdom which are supposed to be biblical virtues: Horrific. The whole thing. Pope Leo blesses a block of ice and […]
Southeastern Seminary Applying DEI To Scholarships
We learn from Pastor Tom Buck that Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, located here in North Carolina, is extending scholarships to certain perceived victim groups– blacks, women, Asians, Hispanics, American Indian, first generation immigrants, internationals, etc. The school is calling it the Revelation 7:9 Initiative. This is highly inappropriate. There are […]
New Jersey Competitive For Governor’s Race
A guy of Italian descent is running for the Republicans against a ditzy female socialist from Virginia who has a host of problems. The race is competitive. Steve Cortes points out that the state of New Jersey has the highest property taxes in the country. He says that New Jersey […]
