Sounds Familiar

The first story is so relevant for how the Country is proceeding. We are going to repeat history if cooler heads don't prevail. God bless the USA.

I do believe this needs to heard by many of today's American's. I think a lot of what is being said, especially in the beginning, is lost on today's society.
We Have These Truths

This Norman Corwin masterpiece at the beginning of our joining WWII is very moving. Makes me, as a Christian, so very thankful to Jesus for allowing me to be born and grow up in the greatest country in the world...ever!
