The Dems notch big wins, while the Right recalibrates.
Welcome! This is the place for balanced takes on politics and world news — without the anger or hype. I believe we can stay informed and stay hopeful.
Every episode wraps up with a few minutes of Biblical encouragement to remind us that faith, peace, and perspective still matter. Learn more.

Timestamp: (4:04). Let’s start with some feedback about my “don’t protest” position from last week.
Timestamp: (15:28). I had to take a detour from recording to check on my Dad at the hospital, but let’s take this moment to do a quick sidebar on God’s timing and how he sometimes works out coincidences that defy description.
Timestamp: (19:34). Some insights you may have missed from this week’s consequential elections.

Let’s end with some notes on faith
As you know, if you want true peace, I believe you should look to God and the Bible for that — not a country, not a party, and certainly not an earthly leader, such as our President or the leader of whatever political party you prefer.
Want to learn more about the Bible,? Check out my resource page here.
By the way, if you’re dealing with depression, PTSD, or thoughts of suicide (especially if you’re a veteran), please check out this link.
Timestamp: (1:31:05). Let’s end with some Biblical wisdom and spiritual encouragement.
I also have a podcast that focuses solely on faith called The Search for God.
Here are a couple of episodes you don’t want to miss:
* For the vets out there... Dealing with paranoia, PTSD, and the emotional scars you earned from serving.
* How it all started: my painful origin story.
Love my moderate, optimistic view of politics and want to know more about how I see things?
Go here:
I always like to end with an important reminder, whether you’re a Christian or not.
And with that, thanks for joining us this week.
