Todd's World

We discuss unexpected loss and suffering, then revisit Mark 6 and the story of Jesus walking on the water, experiencing the storms of life with us.

While many in western North Carolina are staying in tents this winter, now southern California is ablaze with unidentified arsonists starting fires and ill-equipped firefighters doing their best. Massive government incompetence on display. God is not mocked, we reap what we sow.

As Jesus sits down to his final Passover meal in Mark 14, his greatest suffering lies just ahead. He warns his disciples once more of what is coming because he loves them. We take a look back at Moses and the Exodus and the original Passover night.

New Years terrorist attacks, more drone conspiracies, Bill Nye got a medal, Todd's own holiday drone sighting, hidden terror cells in US, holocaust museums, and Jimmy Carter died finally.

When God puts on a body and enters his own story, he does it in the least likely way. He doesn't come as a king but a baby. His birth is announced to a group of shepherds with no influence at all in society. But God is on the move, entering his own story and redeeming us all.

John is born, and the people begin to understand that God is at work among them again. God's new work is the talk of the town, but even John the Baptist's ministry is marked by suffering.

The drones! The drones! What are they? Why are they putting on a light show for us? More lefty journos are seeing the MAGA light. Duke lacrosse rape "victim" admits she lied. And everything else going on in the news this week.

Some of our favorite Christmas movies, an angel makes a special announcement to Mary, she's going to give birth to Jesus. Can a Catholic and a ex-Baptist find common ground on the mother of Jesus? And what does Mary's response to God's call teach us about our own calls from God?

The truth about the Covid jabs is finally coming out, hurricane-ravaged, western North Carolina is sill being ignored by the feds while we hand out billions to foreign countries, preemptive Presidential pardons for the entire DNC criminal cartel are in the works by Biden, UFOs are everywhere while the government lies about them, and that's all just the beginning of what's going on in the world.

In Luke 1, after 400 years of silence, God is on the move again. An angel announces the miraculous conception and birth of John the Baptist who will be a prophet like Isaiah preparing Israel for the coming Messiah. He will turn the hearts of parents back to their children and get the people ready for God.
