“If you have a pet, be reminded that your pet is a gift, and worship the Giver of that gift. If you have recently lost a pet… not only did God take your pet at His appointed time, but He did so for a particular reason. Praise the Lord for His kindness, in giving you an undeserved gift.”
(Henry Anderson – The Cripplegate) My wife and I got a Basset Hound shortly after we got married, around nine years ago. He was a floppy-eared, droopy-eyed, ball of joy. When looking at the litter, we chose the most rambunctious, outgoing little puppy. We named him… Maverick. Not only did the meaning of the name suit him at first glance, but he grew into and filled out that name more than we could ever have expected. Continue reading
(Ray Fava – Evangelical Dark Web) The Angel Studios distributed film, Bonhoeffer: Pastor Spy Assassin is being marketed as a faith-based film by several figures in rightwing media and Evangelicalism. Similar to Sound of Freedom, Angel Studios is trying to sell movie tickets that will not be realized to inflate the box office performance. But where Sound of Freedom tells a story highlighting the disgusting underbelly of human trafficking, Bonhoeffer is yet another WWII movie, but one that celebrates a teacher who lacked sound doctrine and practice. The movie is a romanticized version of the life of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and every clip Angel Studios has promoted features horrendous acting, cartoon villains, and cheesy inspirational dialog. This is a faith-based film more than a war film, like the Tom Cruise Valkyrie movie. But it’s worth noting including “assassin” in the title of the Bonhoeffer movie completely overstates his contribution to attempts on Adolf Hitler’s life. 
“Since its founding, Daystar has platformed the who’s who of prosperity heretics and false teachers, including Joyce Meyer, Sid Roth, Joel Osteen, Joseph Prince, Jentezen Franklin, TD Jakes, Andrew Womack, Kenneth Copeland, Creflo Dollar, Jim Bakker, and Paula White.”
“The heavily redacted plan stated that the project would harvest fetuses from four weeks up until six months old from patients undergoing “elective surgical pregnancy termination” who are carrying viable, non-anomalous fetuses at Planned Parenthood.” 
(Mary Dowling) This is amazing testimony from Dr. Marty Makary, a surgeon and researcher at Johns Hopkins. He is a highly respected Johns Hopkins surgical Oncologist and Health Policy Expert. It confirms what Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been saying for years. He might become one of your favorites among Donald Trump’s nominees. He will make you a believer.
“MSNBC is in free fall, and to be honest, the best thing that could happen is for the network to be fire-sold with its denizens scattered to the four winds and forced to seek honest work. Either the reporters and writers have become such dead-eyed, slack-jawed, drool-faced acolytes of progressivism that they are hopelessly mired in their hatred for all things that lean right in any way that they cannot summon one ounce of compassion for Laken, her family, or anyone else who has suffered from crimes at the hands of illegals — or they are evil.” 
(Wendell Husebo – Breitbart) Perhaps the biggest losers of Matt Gaetz’s confirmation defeat are cabinet nominees Pete Hegseth and Tulsi Gabbard.
“…Christians may do well to remember that although we trust a sovereign God with every outcome in such times, we are still called to love the things that God loves and hate those things which God hates. This is not denying God’s sovereignty, it is the enthusiastic affirmation of that sovereignty.” 
“Given Pam Bondi’s close personal and professional relationship with Donald Trump, why wasn’t she his first choice? Since we’re having fun with the 4-D chess idea, we have to wonder if the plan always was to eventually have her be the nominee.” 
“Word on the street is that massive layoffs are looming over at CNN. But the real shocker is what’s happening behind the scenes at MSNBC and The View. According to Bill O’Reilly, there are some very sneaky moves underway to pull these shows off the air, as they continue to drag down NBC News and ABC News like anchors on a sinking ship.”

“During Trump’s prior administration, the average age of his nominees for attorney general, secretary of defense, and secretary of state was 67, compared to the current average age of 46 for nominees of those positions for this term.” 
“Disney has not made any statements on shelving the episode, but if the episode was dumped over the pro-trans content, it would reveal a brand-new direction for the entertainment giant which, until now, has been not just ultra woke, but militantly so.”
“The elderly homeowners were so frightened by this and afraid that they would not recover their loss that they removed the signs. Nevertheless, FEMA has not returned to their residence. This took place not in Florida, but Georgia.”
“Deception was the hallmark of Campolo’s ministry, though it was dressed in the language of love and progress. His “Red Letter Christianity” movement, which sought to elevate the quoted “red-letter” words of Jesus above the rest of Scripture, was a subtle yet devastating assault on the unity of God’s Word.”
“So why do people keep deconstructing? Because they believe the lie. The lie that freedom is found in autonomy. The lie that sin isn’t really sin. The lie that God’s Word can be twisted without consequence.”
“Women began to adopt a proprietary view of child rearing, believing that proper outcomes depended on THEIR devotion, THEIR dedication, and THEIR doing. “Mothering” became a works-based cult-religion of sorts, the implicit understanding being that the more a mother did for her child, the better a mother she was, which is why women often complain that parenting wears them down to a nub.”
“Okay. Here is what Donald Trump believes: the majority of Americans want him to avenge perceived political corruption and not just drain the swamp; they want the morass annihilated.”
“The fact that Cru believed the 2024 election results are something to grieve over is rooted solely in secular liberalism.”
“Meanwhile, this is a prediction: In coming weeks and months, the Evangelical Intelligentsia will lament with great sorrow and at great volume, that Donald Trump has surrounded himself with evangelicals who have sub-standard doctrine. They will, with the weeping and gnashing of teeth, see that he has surrounded himself with the likes of Paula White or Mark Driscoll. That’s their fault. They own that. Evangelicals who opposed Trump need to sit in time-out. In the corner. With their nose in it.”
One source familiar with the plan told Breitbart News that an executive order has been drafted to create a panel to recommend those senior officers for elimination and that the EO is “definitely” going to Trump’s desk. “This is for real. This [EO] has made the cut,” the source said, adding that it is possible that it is still being revised and consulted with incoming leaders at the Pentagon.”

“How did we get here? I’ve observed that this slow but steady descent into the dark hole of a morally depraved society typically starts when church leaders embrace the ‘Love’ Gospel doctrine. This teaching says that we are simply to love everyone all the time. We must accept them and welcome them with open arms…”
“Voters weren’t turned off by Trump’s brash approach. They wanted the bull to break up the china shop. Black, white, Asian and Hispanic voters told me that, and AP VoteCast, a survey of more than 120,000 voters nationwide, confirmed it in a postelection analysis that showed well over half of voters said they wanted to see substantial change.”
