Sunday School
As a girl who was taught to respect scripture current events boggle my mind. Israel is a special nation for God; they have been treated both with disdain and with special credence throughout history. The Bible shows us their history specifically. This either shows my age or the fact this younger generation doesn’t respect history.…

How Badly Do We Need A Mr. Speaker?
What a three week period it has been since the ousting of McCarthy. There are things I totally understand and don’t understand from all this chaos in Congress. What I do know is Rep. Jim Jordan would have made a necessary Speaker for the time we are in. Rep Steve Scalise would have also been…

Anniversary Memories
Today would have been my Grandpa Leo’s and Grandma Betty’s 77th Wedding Anniversary. This year makes nearly 24 years since she has celebrated the day alone without her other half.

The Status Quo
Two of the loudest voices I heard from Wednesday, before my Wi-Fi went out was a Former Speaker and a Fox Host. Former Speaker Newt Gingrich has maybe a thing or two he could say having been in that position. However Kilmeade had some kind of chip on his shoulder with Rep Tim Burchett. Yet…

Chaos Erupts
The thought of Rep. Matt Gaetz actually accruing all the votes necessary didn’t seem feasible this morning. Boy was I wrong. When he first came onto the scene a few short years ago he was energetic and a Republican. I understand both sides of this issue. The CR, the Continuing Resolution is an enabling function…
