Do not call conspiracy all that this people calls conspiracy, and do not fear what they fear, nor be in dread.
Isaiah 8:12 (ESV)
For God so loved the world, that For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through Him.
John 3:16-17 (ESV)
America has smoke in the kitchen: a smoking, choking frying pan of news. Reporters always want news to sizzle, because sizzle sells and news is business.
Looking back at fragile democracies, politics is an easy source of heat. Ambition and altruism don’t mix well. Press report it, and often, inflame it.
I'm saddened to read disturbing accounts from reporters who abandoned the field. They bring to light tirades, edits, shortcuts, and stories aired only for “shock value.” They also reveal producer bias, which plays to their viewers’ beliefs and fears.
I see one good result from the current right-left polarization of newsrooms, where truth seems to be a moving target. I believe it’s extraordinary news!

We the sheep of the American states, seeking to form a more perfect union, establish justice (only found in God), ensure spiritual tranquility, provide prayer for the common defense, promote everyone’s general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty, both for ourselves and our posterity...
(RESULT)
ARE SPENDING MORE TIME IN THE WORLD OF GOD, asking for wisdom (and receiving it) ... as the single foolproof source of truth and leadership in a confusing world.
Actors, models, and talent for Christ:
The ONLY news you must read (and BROADCAST) is God’s Good News of hope and redemption. On the front page are eye-catching headlines: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, good news, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
This news exceeds political heatwaves and provides cooling, welcoming relief.

NOTE: God is my Ghostwriter. If what I write is good, it’s from God! We’re all called to be actors (action stars) for Jesus. We’re all called to be models of Jesus. We all have gifts, talents, and a commission to multiply them in the world for His glory.
P.S. NO DEVOTION, PREACHER, or SERMON… can begin to replace personal time in the Bible. I wholeheartedly and clear-headedly recommend DAILY BIBLE READING.
WARNING: Don’t focus on your favorite verses, because taken out of context, they’re often misinterpreted. I plead with you to READ AT LEAST 1 BIBLE CHAPTER DAILY. How long does it take? An average of 5 to 10 minutes!
