A Prayer for our Salvation

A Prayer for our Salvation

Heavenly Father, I believe you are God. You are the Creator of Heaven and Earth. You are the God of eternity. You are the ‘Lover’ of my soul. 01/12/2023 12:00 AM

The Big Picture

The Big Picture

From my youth, I was taught to get the “Big Picture” regarding things in life. “There is always more than meets the eye.” “There is always more beneath the surface.” “Pay attention to details because something is hidden in what may appear small.” 01/12/2023 12:00 AM

Texas, Don’t Become Crazy California

Texas, Don’t Become Crazy California

Did you know that California used to be a conservative state, more so than Texas? They had Ronald Reagan for governor. Once he wasn’t governor anymore., it started going south. San Francisco began to dictate policy. Conservatives and Christians didn’t push back. San Francisco pushed the LGBT agenda and took God out of our schools under the guise of “Freedom of Religion.” 01/12/2023 12:00 AM

After 65 Years Service in Funeral Industry: Brad Kimbrough steps away from his Life’s Work

After 65 Years Service in Funeral Industry: Brad Kimbrough steps away from his Life’s Work

Brad Kimbrough, of Cisco, is finally hanging up his suit and tie and stepping away from his life’s work at Kimbrough Funeral Home; having retired on Friday, January 6th, 2023. After starting in the funeral industry at age 14 by digging graves in his hometown of Henrietta, TX, Brad worked through the business to learn all the ins and outs. At 17, he and his friend Doyle Davis, (who also grew up to work as a funeral director) drove the local ambulance for Hawkins Funeral Home, and did other jobs around the funeral home. During this time he met and married Sherry Nichols, and together they built their lives in service to others. During the Vietnam War Brad was drafted and stationed at Fort Benning, GA. Because of his many years of working in a funeral home in TX, he was given special permission to work off base for the Striffler- Hamby Funeral Home in Columbus, GA. 01/12/2023 12:00 AM

Committed Prayers For the Nation

Committed Prayers For the Nation

Many Americans treasure the privilege of being born in the United States of America. My generation learned about its founding when we were in school. Those of us, who are Believers, support it in our prayer life. 01/05/2023 12:00 AM

The Godless Constitution

The Godless Constitution

A good example of revisionist historians is a 1997 book called The Godless Constituion, written by two professors at Cornell University. This book was used in many universities as a text book. According to the authors of this book, the framers of the constitution did not want statements of God because they (our framers) wanted to “create an utterly secular state” in which religion would be kept strictly private and separate from government. Reading some Oaths of public office does no support that falsehood. 01/05/2023 12:00 AM

Hope For My Grandchildren

Hope For My Grandchildren

The Bible says in 11 Timothy 3:1, 'But mark this: there will be terrible times in the last days.' Another translation says it this way; 'In the last days, there will come times of difficulty.' A third translation is, 'In the last days, grievous times shall come.' Because this is true, I have great concerns regarding my children's and grandchildren's future. 01/05/2023 12:00 AM
