All Jesus’ disciples, except John, were martyred. It was the fate of many early Christians and continues today as the message of the Gospel continues to go forth. Day of the Christian Martyr is a special time to remember those who have given their lives for the advancement of the Gospel. This year it is June 29th.

The LGBTQ issue isn’t in the news so much anymore – even within Christian circles – not only unfortunate, but tragic! This is so-called LGBTQ+ Pride Month. They keep adding letters! As this issue is largely abandoned by Christian groups, we’ve seen a steady advancement of the normalization of homosexuality. The nation is rightfully in an uproar about boys in girls’ sports and private spaces, but we cannot ignore the fact that homosexual activists laid the groundwork. We knew when Donald Trump ran for President the first time he viewed “same-sex marriage” as the law of the land. Too many others view it the same way. Now in his second term, he is doing a great job for the country – except in one major moral issue.

Primary Election 2025 is just a few days away. Most races that will appear on your ballot will be county wide races or more local races such as borough council, township supervisor or school board. All these races are extremely important. However, there are also two statewide races – Commonwealth Court and Superior Court. In the past few years, we have been reminded how very important these races are also. What a judge decides will impact you and your family. My guest today is one of those judicial candidates.

The Primary Election is less than a month away – May 20 to be exact. There will be mostly local races – borough council, mayor, township supervisor, sheriff, school board, etc. But there are two statewide races – Commonwealth Court and Superior Court. In November we’ll be voting on whether to give four PA Supreme Court judges, one Commonwealth Court judge and one Superior Court judge another ten-year term. So, this is a very important year for judges!

President Trump has already fulfilled many of his campaign promises via executive order in the few short months he’s been in office, but a stumbling block that has been consistently thrown in his path is liberal judges. And we have to remember executive orders can easily be overturned by the next President, so Congress must do more. But do these district judges have the authority to do what they are doing or do they simply not like the guy in the White House?

REAL ID is coming soon. The Federal government has been trying since 2005. Previously states pushed back big time. Here in PA, State Reps Sam Rohrer and Daryl Metcalfe led the charge against this intrusion on our personal freedoms. They are no longer in the General Assembly and now legislators are buckling. In fact one Republican is circulating a co-sponsorship memo to make it easier to get a REAL ID! To say the least, this is very troubling. Too many ask, but what’s the problem with REAL ID. It’s been years since this effort began and too many have forgotten.

School board races in PA are usually nothing to get overly excited about. Very few are competitive – usually if you run, you will win. This year will be quite different. We’ve found out in recent years just how important school boards are – from fighting mask mandates, fighting terrible policies from the US Department of Education, to porn in our school libraries. The future of our nation really depends upon the education of America’s future voters.

Christmas is just around the corner. We seem to see fewer and fewer manger scenes in yards and more reindeer, snowmen, and Santa Clauses and, of course, every mall has a Santa Claus for kids to sit on his knee and tell him what they want for Christmas. But, of course, Santa asked whether he or she has been naughty or nice. Have you ever wondered about Santa Claus? How did he become a part of Christmas? Is this jolly man in a red suit based upon a real person in history? Well, you’ve come to the right place to get some of those questions answered!

Christians are called to be salt and light, does that extend into the political arena or is that too dirty for Christians to be involved in? Should we just stay within our church walls where it is safer and ignore what is going on around us? What would America look like if more Bible-believing Christians voted? We do have an election coming up in just a few days. What should we do, I mean Jesus is not on the ballot?

If you haven’t heard there is an election coming up on November 5th. Will the promotion of the LGBTQ issue play a role in this election? Does one party promote it more than another? Should this issue alone play a role in our decision to vote or not to vote? It is predicted that up to 41 million Christians will sit this election out!! Why? Shouldn’t we be concerned enough to care for the future of our nation and care for the men, women and children who live here?

Is your local community, is your state, is the nation becoming a darker place to live? I’m not talking about a physical darkness caused by the high cost of electricity preventing people from turning on their lights. I’m talking about a spiritual darkness. Have the Halloween decorations in recent years become more macabre? Are there more witches, giant skeletons – just in general scarier yard decorations? Witch walks??What is behind this? Is it simply retailers honing their marketing skills or does there seem to be a desire on the part of the consumer for such things?

I had a fifth grade English teacher named Mr. Douglas who had a habit of saying ‘Speak now or forever hold your peace”. As a fifth grader I always wondered whether that was spelled “peace” or “piece” – but what does it mean if we hold our piece? Does it mean we accept what we hear or see or are simply indifferent to our surroundings? Or do we even care about anyone except ourselves?
