Family life is difficult and […]
Poo-Poo-Politics ~ Lawlessness The Poo-Poo-Politics of our last decade of lawlessness, has increased incivility and exchanged what is wrong to right and right to wrong. These corrupted leaders have created such a stank in the leadership of our country from the Justice Department to the Judicial Courts and all throughout our national leadership. Lies have […]

God has already saved us and called us to this holy calling—not because of any good works we may have done, but because of His own intention and because eons and eons ago (before time itself existed), He gave us this grace in Jesus the Anointed, the Liberating King. 2 Timothy 1:9 The Voice Jesus […]
