Friend,

Happy Thanksgiving, I hope you spent the day with loved ones and ate too much!. Our world has changed so much that we must all consider each other with love and hope. Hope for a future that brings us closer together rather than one that pulls us further apart. On my social media feed and on YouTube, I stumbled across the story of Thanksgiving. It was interesting. There is so much revisionist history, much of which I can dispute because I can see it through the lens of reality. It was refreshing to hear about the Pilgrims and the reason for their journey, the hardships they faced, the mistakes they made, and their ultimate success. Faith and belief were very much part of the reason for their adventure.

My family and I followed many of our usual traditions (although my son is gone), and we let our memories of him, especially during his favorite time of the year, help us to make it through the day.

The year is almost over...

We are in the middle of a world change of biblical proportions. Things may get worse before they get better, but foundational faith and belief in Jesus Christ will prevail!!

Current events: shooting of two National Guard members (one deceased). Our prayers are with them and their families. The current national immigration emergency is a result of four years of an open border, where twenty million people entered the country illegally and unvetted.

In the coming year, prayer is at the top of the "to-do" list.

Once again, I will delve into religion, politics, current events, etc. Leadership and mindset will be pivotable. The use of social media, YouTube, and this newsletter will make this possible in 2026.

Thank you for your subscription!!
