The purpose of this podcast is to help you find healing for your wounds; find hope in your despair; find intimacy in your loneliness; find refuge from the storms of life; Basically, to help you find a deeper walk with Jesus. There is one thing I know after having lived all these years: God wastes nothing. Not our sorrows. Not our wounds. Not even our failures.  Hi. I am your host, Dennis Jernigan, and I am so excited about the next few weeks of the Dennis Jernigan podcast because I absolutely love the subject matter that we're covering. I really do.  For the past few weeks I have been sharing the stories behind songs inspired by a fantasy book series I wrote for my children and grandchildren…but something I have forgotten to tell you (I will blame my forgetfulness on the Parkinson's) is that the underlying reason I wrote these stories was to paint an allegorical picture of what it means to come to Christ for salvation and how to view the word from Christ's point of view. I wrote the books in such a way that people would not be deterred from reading the books if they felt they had overtly religious undertones. You will be able to find pictures of Jesus and discovering none's identity in Christ painted throughout The Chronicles of Bren.  And there's one more thing to tell you. I have actually written 2 series of books. The first series is called The Chronicles of Bren Trilogy and the second series (which is about to have its 4th book completed) called The Bairns of Bren. This second series features my grandchildren as the heroes of the stories and it has become quite a wild ride. I'll let you know when book 4 in that series is available.  You are used to hearing me share the stories behind songs of worship and praise; songs of ministry; songs of comfort; songs from Father God's heart to ours…but the song I am sharing today was inspired by a 3-book series of fantasy novels I wrote for my children and grandchildren way back in 2015. The first book in this three-book series is called Captured (Book 1 in The Chronicles of Bren Trilogy). You may be asking yourself, “Why would a worship leader and song receiver write  series of books and songs about a fantasy world?”  I won't share everything that has led me to the writing of fantasy novels. You can simply listen to the podcasts from the episode called “Riding the Wind” all the way up to today's episode in order to catch up.   This week's song, “Creatures”, was received sometime in 2015 0r 2016 is a very scary song and was intended to paint a picture of the evil that is at work in the spiritual realm. Some of the creatures are good. Some are evil. My goal was to teach my children and grandchildren to walk in discernment and to trust their consciences and to remember that the enemy sometimes presents himself as an angel of light.  My desire is that my grandchildren would learn to be vigilant because the enemy goes about like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour with his lies. I'll just mention a few of the lyrics that are meant to instill that vigilance.  Better watch out.  Better watch out When you pass through Forest or valley Whatever you do Better watch out Better watch  Whatever you do Better be watching  But who's watching who?  Following is a list of the creatures found in Bren. Ogres, Werewolves, Terrebithians (a race of men who live under the ground), Hawken (Hawk people who are faifthul to Bren), Wolfen (wolf people who are faithful to Bren), and Treesant (faithful, yet cautious of Bren). Swine rats, demons, unicorns (always good), dragons (fifty fifty chance of being good), fiends (never a good thing), Witches (never good), warlocks (never good).   Captured is a tale as old as time. Day at war with night. I painted a saga of peril and balanced it with faith, because I want my grandchildren to know life is not always easy but it always best lived by walking in faith with Jesus Christ. In this story The Founders represent the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Let me highlight a couple of the creatures to give you some insight as to why I created them. Sylvan – Treesants – These people of the forest – tree spirits, if you will – were inspired by my love for the woods. On our farm, we have acres and acres of forest. In fact, my sons and I have cut trails through the forest and have built a campground in those woods. The campground sits atop a small hill we have dubbed Stirling Mountain after the famous battle of Stirling depicted in the movie about William Wallace, Braveheart.  As a teenager studying vocational agriculture, I actually spent time studying trees and was tested on identifying various species native to Oklahoma. Throughout the history of fantasy and mythological writings there have been depictions of tree spirits. I had to include my own version in this story. The Treesants – Sylvan in particular – represent the mystery of life and the joy of trying to unravel the mystery…which Leonolis never does. But I don't think he will ever stop trying. After all, isn't that where the fun is? Swine Rats – This particular creature was conjured up in my mind by the various wild animals I have experienced throughout my life – especially when growing up in the country. We often see coyotes and deer and bobcats and skunks and woodchucks and raccoons and squirrels and possums. When I was a boy in FFA, I had show animals. I bought my first pig to show at livestock shows when I was a freshman in high school. The pig was purchased from a friend who lived ten miles away. After getting the pig home and placed in the enclosure I had prepared for her, she promptly escaped! I searched for a couple of weeks to no avail. After a futile period of searching, I gave up. A week after my search ended I receive a call from the friend I had bought the pig from. He told me the pig had come back to his birthplace! As I secured the enclosure and went to once again bring my pig home, I could not help but imagine what she had endured and all she might have gone through just to make it those weeks alone in her incredible journey. All of that helped inspire the swine rats. I combined rats with a pig just because rats personify dirty, rotten, scoundrels, soaked in evil to me!  My grandchildren love to scare me and I love to scare them when it is apprpriate. I do not want them to walk in fear but learn to discern when fear comes it can serve as a warning to be alert and to get themselves out of harm's way if necessary. This is meant to be a scary song and is meant to remind us to walk in the light but walk prepared to stand against the darkness with the light of Jesus Christ. SONG [1Pe 5:8 NIV] 8 Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.  I believe the roar of the enemy, Satan, is simply lies…noise meant to cause fear and to lead to temptation. I also believe he is like a lion who, though he makes a lot of noise, has no teeth because his only power over us is deception. It would do us all good to remember that.  I hope this series of songs on my podcast has not been too off-putting for you. These stories truly do give me an inside track to the hearts of my grand children. Many of them are getting old enough now to understand the allegory and the meaning behind it and for that I am grateful.  I hope you find joy and encouragement as you read the books and listen to the songs. They really are refreshing ways to help you find Jesus even through the most difficult times of life.  Thanks for tuning in to The Dennis Jernigan Podcast.

A new study reveals that these jets are formed when superheated gas experiences a rapid shrinking towards the black hole's event horizon, offering insights into galaxy evolution and the fundamental physics of black holes. We discuss the implications of these findings for understanding cosmic phenomena and the behavior of matter in extreme gravitational fields.NASA's Mars Perseverance Rover Observes Martian TwistersNext, we delve into the fascinating observations made by NASA's Mars Perseverance Rover, which has captured images of dust devils swirling on the rim of Jezero Crater. These dust devils, including one consuming another, provide important data on Martian atmospheric conditions and help refine our climate models of the Red Planet. The rover's findings highlight the role of these phenomena in influencing Martian weather and surface interactions.New Insights into Earth's Tectonic PlatesAdditionally, we discuss a new study that uncovers how anomalies in the Earth's mantle transition zone affect the movement of tectonic plates. The research suggests that thick basaltic rock compositions within this zone can influence the trajectory and speed of subducting plates, which is vital for understanding the recycling of surface materials and the long-term stability of Earth's climate. This discovery opens new avenues for studying plate tectonics and its implications for our planet's habitability.00:00 Space Time Series 28 Episode 46 for broadcast on 16 April 202500:49 Mechanisms behind black hole jet formation06:30 Implications for galaxy evolution and black hole physics12:15 Mars Perseverance Rover's dust devil observations18:00 Importance of dust devils in Martian climate studies22:45 Insights into Earth's tectonic plate movement27:00 Summary of recent geological findings30:15 Science report: Social media's impact on body imagewww.spacetimewithstuartgary.comwww.bitesz.com

It's Wednesday, April 16th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Christian lawyer highlights persecution of Christians in Egypt A lawyer with Alliance Defending Freedom International visited Egypt recently to highlight the persecution of Christians there. The country is about 10% Christian. That's the largest Christian minority in the Middle East and North Africa. However, believers often face persecution from the Muslim majority. Christians suffer employment discrimination, false accusations of blasphemy against Muhammad, sexual violence, and even bombing campaigns.  Elizabeth Brink with Alliance Defending Freedom noted, “Yet, in the face of such hardship, the courage and resilience of Egypt's Christian community are a powerful testament to the enduring hope of the Gospel.” Egypt is ranked 40th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of nations where it is most difficult to be a Christian.  Hungary bans events that celebrate sexual perversion On Monday, lawmakers in Hungary passed a constitutional amendment to ban events that celebrate sexually perverted lifestyles.  The amendment also recognizes only two sexes: male and female.  Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán supported the legislation, saying, “We won't let woke ideology endanger our kids. … We're protecting children's development, affirming that a person is born either male or female.”  Genesis 1:27 says, “So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.” Trump freezes $2.2 billion from Harvard over antisemitism In the United States, the Trump administration is taking on Harvard University.  The U.S. Department of Education announced Monday that it is freezing $2.2 billion in multi-year grants and $60 million in multi-year contract value to Harvard. This came after Harvard refused to comply with demands from the Trump administration. Those demands included ending its diversity, equity, and inclusion programs and screening students for issues like terrorism and anti-Semitism.  White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt spoke with passion at the press briefing. LEAVITT: “The President made it clear to Harvard, ‘Follow federal law. No longer break Title VI, which was passed by Congress, to ensure no student can be discriminated against on the basis of race, and you will receive federal funding. “Unfortunately, Harvard has not taken the President, the administration's demands seriously. “All the President is asking, ‘Don't break federal law, and then you can have your federal funding.'  “I think the President is also begging a good question. More than $2 billion out the door to Harvard when they have a more than $50 billion endowment. Why are the American taxpayers subsidizing a university that has billions of dollars in the bank already? And we certainly should not be funding a place where such grave antisemitism exists.” Kansas pro-life legislature overrode pro-abort governor's vetoes Republican lawmakers in Kansas overrode vetoes from Democrat Governor Laura Kelly last Thursday to pass several bills related to unborn children. One bill recognizes children as dependents from conception for child support programs. The second bill requires public school courses on human development or sexuality to include the development of a baby in the womb. And the third bill provides millions of dollars in funding for pro-life pregnancy centers.  Christian statesman new Ambassador-at-Large for religious freedom Last Thursday, President Donald Trump nominated Mark Walker as the U.S. Ambassador-At-Large for International Religious Freedom. Walker served as a U.S. House Representative for North Carolina's 6th congressional district from 2015 to 2021. Before working in politics, he served in pastoral roles at churches in Florida and North Carolina for 16 years. Listen to his advocacy of religious liberty not only here in America, but worldwide from the floor of the U.S. House back on July 24, 2015. WALKER: “Our commitment to allow people to live out their religious values, without fear of discrimination, is really the cornerstone that developed our country into a force for freedom. “But this liberty isn't just an American right. It should be a foundational element for all people groups. Ronald Reagan said it best. He said, ‘The most essential element of our defense of freedom is our insistence on speaking out for the cause of religious liberty.'” Walker thanked Trump in a post on X.  He wrote, “I'll be relentless in fighting for those targeted who dare to live out their faith. I'm grateful to my beautiful wife and family for their support. May God provide the path and may we have the courage to follow.” More Millennials are reading their Bibles The American Bible Society released the first chapter from their 2025 State of the Bible report. The study identified Bible users as those who read the Bible on their own at least three times a year. Forty-one percent of U.S. adults qualified as Bible users this year, up from 38% last year but down from 49% in 2019. Younger adults are leading the recent growth in Bible users. Thirty-nine percent of Millennials qualified as Bible users this year, up from 30% last year. Bible users are also increasing among Millennial and Gen X men in particular. Archeologists unearthed first Christian hymn captured in new film And finally, Christian music artists revived an ancient hymn last Friday ahead of Resurrection Sunday.  MOVIE NARRATOR: “Archeologists had no idea what they'd uncovered, an 1,800-year-old Christian hymn, the first to be discovered with words and music. It's not even a page, really. It's just 30 centimeters by 5 centimeters, but it provides amazing early evidence, not only of the beliefs and spread of Christianity, but also of its music.” The new recording is based on a papyrus discovered in Egypt in 1918. The manuscript dates from around the third century A.D. It's considered the earliest Christian song preserved with both words and musical notation.  John Dickson, a Christian historian, has worked to bring back the hymn since 2022, hosting a new documentary called “The First Hymn.”  Christian artists Chris Tomlin and Ben Fielding collaborated to release a recording of the ancient song. Here are some of the lyrics from the recording: “All powers cry out in answer. All glory and praise forever to our God, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen, we sing amen.” Colossians 3:16 says, “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.” Watch the trailer through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com.   You can stream “The First Hymn” movie on line for $15.

There is one thing I know after having lived all these years: God wastes nothing. Not our sorrows. Not our wounds. Not even our failures.  Hi. I am your host, Dennis Jernigan, and I am so excited about the next few weeks of the Dennis Jernigan podcast because I absolutely love the subject matter that we're covering.   For the past few weeks I have been sharing the stories behind songs inspired by  fantasy book series I wrote for my children and grandchildren. You are used to hearing me share the stories behind songs of worship and praise; songs of ministry; songs of comfort; songs from Father God's heart to ours…but the song I am sharing today was inspired by a 3-book series of fantasy novels I wrote for my children and grandchildren way back in 2015. The first book in this three-book series is called Captured (Book 1 in The Chronicles of Bren Trilogy). You may be asking yourself, “Why would a worship leader and song receiver write  series of books and songs about a fantasy world?”  I won't share everything that has led me to the writing of fantasy novels. You can simply listen to the podcasts from “Riding the Wind' to today's episode in order to catch up. That being said, I will share a brief story that may give you insight into the reason I would create a fantasy world.  For many years, from my early childhood and even well into my early adult years, I felt rejected by most people and had a deep desire to know my father's love for me. I had already believed the lie of the enemy, deeming myself unlovable. Each night as I went to bed, I would dream of being a little boy on the starship enterprise and my dad was Captain James Tiberius Kirk. My mother was Doris Day and she was always singing Que sera sera, whatever will be will be. Each night in those dreams, I found myself captured by aliens, placed in captivity, and being readied for execution. Just as I was about to be destroyed, my dad, Captain Kirk, would materialize with his weapon, his phaser, set not on stun but on destroy. Every night I was rescued in those dreams and I woke up right at the moment of rescue. As I have looked back now, I can see how creatively God engineered those dreams to paint a picture of what he had already done for me by the work of the cross. He used fantasy through my dreams to paint a picture of his great love for me. I truly believe that with all my heart. And that is the reason I am sharing these songs from my fantasy books.  The song I am sharing on this week's episode is called “Jidgel! Jidgel!”, a song I wrote for the book “Captured (Book 1 in the The Chronicles of Bren Trilogy). “Captured” is my life story written in allegory as a legacy to my children and grandchildren. As I wrote the books, I envisioned what it might sound like if Disney ever made a movie based on these books. I completed the songs for the first two books but never got around to writing songs for book three. That book is about my vision for my 9 children…and their real-life stories are still being written. They will need to write their own songs.  This week's song, “Jidgel! Jidjel!”, was received sometime in 2015 0r 2016 and was intended to infuse a bit of humor in the story as well as to paint a picture of taking ownership of our own feelings and attitudes and points of view, that regardless of our circumstances, we can choose joy. In the land of Bren, there is a place known as The Forbidden Swamp. It is massive and almost impassable, yet due to circumstances, our protagonist, Leonolis, needs to find a way through The Forbidden Swamp. He is led to a feisty old man, named Jidgel to seek a way through.   The name for this character was invented by one of my sons when he was just a boy. My son is one of the most creative people I know. One of  his funniest ideas was the way he spoke about what he would call his one-day children. He told me that when he had a son he would call him Jidgel! I never forgot that and decided that this character's name had to be Jidgel. Jidgel represents self-reliance and personal responsibility…and also a beacon of wisdom. Jidgel lives alone and fends for himself in the swamp, daring to live where others fear to tread. As a result, he sees through the trappings of government and superficiality of mankind and evokes a sense of accepting people just because of who they are and not for what they can do for him. Leonolis trusts him quickly once he discerns the wisdom coming from this feisty little man.  Jidgel was one of my favorite characters to write.  He is very curmudgeonly and bluntly honest and has no fear of what others may think or say of him. Leonolis asks Jidjel to show him the way through the swamp and the keeper of the swamp, as Jidgel is known, challenges him to walk in wisdom. His purpose is to challenge young men and women, to not hold others responsible for their feelings or their attitudes or for their lots in life. He challenges them to hold themselves responsible and to walk as one who is responsible. He believes it is weakness to  blame others for your misfortunes. He challenges Lronolis to learn to make something beautiful even out of his misfortunes just as Jidgel saw beauty in a place most others in the Kingdom avoided. I absolutely love this song. Sorry you're about to get a song stuck in your head for a few hours, but it's just fun to say and sing the name Jidgel… SONG Jidgel showed reverence to the boy, Leonolis, but was very honest with him. Though Jidgel was not a constant character throughout the three book series, he is one of my favorites simply because he loved Leonolis enough to be honest with him. His character could have written these words from Pro 3:11-26 NIV 11 My son, do not despise the LORD's discipline, and do not resent his rebuke, 12 because the LORD disciplines those he loves, as a father the son he delights in. 13 Blessed are those who find wisdom, those who gain understanding, 14 for she is more profitable than silver and yields better returns than gold. 15 She is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her. 16 Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor. 17 Her ways are pleasant ways, and all her paths are peace. 18 She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her; those who hold her fast will be blessed. 19 By wisdom the LORD laid the earth's foundations, by understanding he set the heavens in place; 20 by his knowledge the watery depths were divided, and the clouds let drop the dew. 21 My son, do not let wisdom and understanding out of your sight, preserve sound judgment and discretion; 22 they will be life for you, an ornament to grace your neck. 23 Then you will go on your way in safety, and your foot will not stumble. 24 When you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet. 25 Have no fear of sudden disaster or of the ruin that overtakes the wicked, 26 for the LORD will be at your side and will keep your foot from being snared.  I hope you find joy and encouragement as you read the books and listen to the songs. They really are refreshing ways to help you find Jesus even through the most difficult times of life. And besides, laughter does good like a medicine. Just try saying the name Jidgel without at least smiling a bit!    Thanks for tuning in to The Dennis Jernigan Podcast. For more about me, my story, or my music, visit dennisjernigan.com.

Welcome to Day 2603 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Day 2603 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 56:8-13 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2603 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2603 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. In today's Wisdom Nugget, I'll guide you along the path of wisdom, encouragement, and strength as we journey together through God's Word. Thank you again for joining me as we continue exploring the Psalms—rich in wisdom, authenticity, and hope. Today, we're completing our exploration of Psalm 56 by focusing specifically on verses 8 through 13. Psalm 56 is one of those deeply personal Psalms written by King David in a time of great fear and vulnerability. Captured by enemies in Gath, David faced overwhelming danger, yet his honest emotions and unwavering faith in God provide profound insight into how we can respond to fear, pain, and uncertainty today. Let's start by reading Psalm 56:8-13 from the New Living Translation: 8 You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book. 9 My enemies will retreat when I call to you for help. This I know: God is on my side! 10 I praise God for what he has promised; yes, I praise the Lord for what he has promised. 11 I trust in God, so why should I be afraid? What can mere mortals do to me? 12 I will fulfill my vows to you, O God, and will offer a sacrifice of thanks for your help. 13 For you have rescued me from death; you have kept my feet from slipping. So now I can walk in your presence, O God, in your life-giving light. God's Tender Compassion (Verse 8) David begins this section with a beautiful and comforting image of God's intimate care: “You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book.” This verse is profoundly moving and deeply comforting. David vividly portrays God not as a distant observer but as intimately involved in every detail of our lives. He uses poetic language, reflecting an ancient custom where mourners collected tears in small bottles as a way of remembering their grief. David imagines God doing this very thing—not literally, of course, but symbolically. It shows that God sees, understands, and values our deepest pain. In ancient Israelite culture, recording important events in a book signified permanence, remembrance, and value. David applies this practice metaphorically, affirming God's close attention to our grief and struggles. Every tear is remembered, every sorrow acknowledged. This reveals God's profound compassion and care. Illustration: Imagine a loving parent comforting a crying child after a painful experience. The parent carefully wipes each tear, holding the child close. Though tears themselves evaporate quickly, the child's emotional pain is remembered, comforted, and cared for by the parent. David's imagery suggests the same profound, intimate care from God. Application: Have you ever felt your struggles or sorrows were unseen or...

There is one thing I know after having lived all these years: God wastes nothing. Not our sorrows. Not our wounds. Not even our failures. Hi. I am your host, Dennis Jernigan, and I am so excited about the next few weeks of the Dennis Jernigan podcast because I absolutely love the subject matter that we're covering.   For the past few weeks I have been sharing the stories behind songs inspired by  fantasy book series I wrote for my children and grandchildren. You are used to hearing me share the stories behind songs of worship and praise; songs of ministry; songs of comfort; songs from Father God's heart to ours…but the song I am sharing today was inspired by a 3-book series of fantasy novels I wrote for my children and grandchildren way back in 2015. You may be asking yourself, “Why would a worship leader and song receiver write  series of books and songs about a fantasy world?” I will not take the time to share all I shared the first few weeks of this series. You'll just need to listen and catch up  by  beginning with the episode titled “Riding the Wind” through this week's podcast. That will catch you up as to why I am sharing these songs. The utter reality is that the Lord used fantasy and myth to lead me to utter and  unwavering faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, He really did.   The song I am sharing on this week's episode is called “Fairies”, a song I wrote for the book “Captured (Book 1 in the The Chronicles of Bren Trilogy). “Captured” is my life story written in allegory as a legacy to my children and grandchildren. As I wrote the books, I envisioned what it might sound like if Disney ever made a movie based on these books. I completed the songs for the first two books but never got around to writing songs for book three. That book is about my vision for my 9 children…and their real-life stories are still being written. They will need to write their own songs. This week's song, “Fairies”, was received sometime in 2015 0r 2016 and was intended to infuse a bit of humor in the story. In the land of Bren, fairies are servants of the kingdom and are known to help guide people to where they need to be. In book one, Captured, the main fairy is named Rania.   Rania is a good yet mischievous fairy. Rania was was inspired by my daughter Raina. As a little girl, we actually called her Velociraina, after the velociraptors from the movie Jurassic Park because of her sneaky, mischievous way of dealing with her younger brothers! Raina is so beautiful and so loving and such a servant it was easy to see her as a fairy, flitting around guiding people to where they need to be. Her relationship with her older sister, Galen, inspired the relationship between the Hawken girl, Galenna, and the fairy, Rania. There is no deep spiritual truth I was trying to convey through this character. I just wanted to have a little fun so I created a character who liked to have little fun. The song was written to describe this character and was fun to sing. I wanted the music of the entire album to have a bit of Celtic or Medieval flavor to it because I think it fits the story well and gives a sense of wonder to the saga. Here's something I never imagined saying: Enjoy my song about fairies!   SONG   Proverbs 17:22 NIV says, 22 A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.   I hope you do not mind me taking this detour along the way of the journey through my music through the years. These songs were truly a joy to write and the fact that knowing my grandchildren and great-grandchildren will one day listen to them brings my heart so much joy it's hard to explain. It just does.   If you have not already done so, I encourage you to read the trilogy, The Chronicles of Bren and that you would listen to the music with a completely different attitude and point of you. I just want to give every opportunity for my grandchildren and great-grandchildren for generations to come to know there is a creator who is Savior and Redeemer and that these stories might, in some small way, lead them to that understanding.   That being said, I have some great news about the music from my fantasy series. You can listen to and even download the entire album for book one absolutely for free. It is called “Captured - Songs For the Journey” and it can be found on the website www.thechroniclesofbren.com. I encourage you to read the book “Captured” and then listen to the songs inspired by each of the main characters. This album is meant to encourage young men to look past their shortcomings and failures and the lies of the enemy and see and be  who Father God says they are.

Now, I challenge you to rise up and be the warrior for the kingdom God has called to to be today. And I urge you to put off the lies of the enemy and put on the truth of who the Lord says you are and then go and BE who your Heavenly Father says you are…   Fairies WWORDS & MUSIC Dennis Jernigan ©2015 Verse Fairies tend to vary  And can have quite an attitude Some can be quite merry Some can practice less than gratitude Mischievous and magical And more than a mystery Bringing good from tragical And leaving quite a history Oh!

Cities and Memory - remixing the sounds of the world

Many of Albania's voices are political, and this recording demonstrates that this remains true today. Captured in Skanderbeg Square, in the heart of Tirana, this recording showcases the soundscape of a protest organized by the opposition party, the Democratic Party of Albania.  In the recording, the voice of the individual speaking into the microphone during the protest in front of Tirana City Hall reverberates off the nearby museum, opera house, and Hotel Tirana surrounding the square. The preparations for the fair and the speeches happening in the square are also included in this recording, contributing to the intricate soundscape of the area. Recorded by Uğur Aslan.

Luke records the last day before Jesus' sacrifice on the cross. It is filled with Jesus being rejected, hated, betrayed, denied, abandoned, wrongly accused and condemned. This was all prophesied and foretold in God's Word hundreds of years before it happened. The beauty, passion and obedience to God's plan was seen of Jesus in Luke 22 when He says, "not my will, but your will be done."

Life is a precious gift, but let's be real— it often comes with its share of pain. Whether it's physical, emotional, mental, or relational, we all encounter moments of sorrow and suffering. Life can feel anything but fair, right? That's why this podcast is here to guide you towards healing, hope, intimacy, and refuge from life's storms, ultimately fostering a deeper connection with Jesus. Through all my years, one thing is certain: God doesn't waste a thing. Not our struggles, not our wounds, not even our failures. Hey there, I'm Dennis Jernigan, your host, and I'm thrilled (and maybe a tad nervous) to share today's song and its backstory with you. As I mentioned last week, my apprehension stems from the fact that I typically share stories behind worship and ministry songs, but today's song was inspired by a fantasy novel series I penned for my kids and grandkids back in 2015. You might wonder, "Why is a worship leader writing about a fantasy world?" I won't recap all the details here, but if you tune in from the episode "Riding the Wind" to "Ollieman's Song," you'll understand why these songs are significant. The truth is, the Lord used fantasy and myth to anchor my unwavering faith in Jesus Christ. On this week's episode, I'm excited to share the song "Lucian's Pride," which I penned for my book "Captured," the first installment in The Chronicles of Bren Trilogy. This book is my life story told through allegory, serving as a legacy for my children and grandchildren. As I crafted these books, I couldn't help but imagine what they would sound like if they were turned into Disney movies. While I managed to create songs for the first two books, I never quite got around to composing for the third. That final book delves into my vision for my nine children, whose real-life tales are still unfolding. They'll have to write their own songs, quite literally. Now, here's the exciting part—I have fantastic news to share! You can not only listen to but also download the entire album for book one, "Captured - Songs For the Journey," completely free of charge. Simply head over to www.thechroniclesofbren.com to access it. I highly recommend reading "Captured" first and then immersing yourself in the songs inspired by each main character. This album aims to empower young men to transcend their flaws, failures, and the enemy's lies, embracing their true identity as defined by God. Let's delve into "Lucian's Pride," a song that came to me around 2015 or 2016. Lucian, the story's antagonist, embodies the evil that exists in our world. I see Lucian as a representation of Lucifer, both names—Lucian meaning 'Light' and Lucifer meaning 'Shining One'—initially appearing as beacons of light but concealing darkness and malevolence within. Just like in the story of Captured, I, too, faced adversity in my youth, including sexual abuse and ridicule for my creative nature. Despite these challenges, I chose to view them from a higher perspective—the Lord's perspective—allowing me to emerge as an overcomer who sees setbacks as stepping stones to greater things. I overcame the hurts of my childhood and I actually allegorically incorporated them into the book series The Chronicles of Bren: Captured and The Chronicles of Bren: Sacrifice. Lucian symbolizes the enduring concept that redemption is always within reach, irrespective of our past mistakes. As we're taught in God's word, Lucifer, the devil, is a master deceiver who seeks the downfall of every human. He prowls around like a roaring lion, aiming to devour with his deceit. But let me assure you, based on personal experience, our past failures don't define us. True failure only occurs when someone stumbles and chooses not to rise and continue on the path toward Jesus. This song offers a glimpse into Satan's tactics, shedding light on how he navigates the human mind. His goal is to inflate our pride to the point where we believe ourselves to be gods. Let's reject the lies and embrace the truth of who God says we are. "Lucian's Pride" stirs within me a righteous anger towards the enemy of God, having witnessed many individuals liberated from his falsehoods, reborn through Jesus.  It echoes the deceptive whispers of the Liar—Lucifer—that haunted me in my youth and early adulthood, evoking that same anger. The thought of countless children falling victim to his lies fuels my determination to share these stories far and wide, especially with the youth. We need to remember that. My wish is that this song will help them see through the deception as they engage with the book and its music. Let's tune in and see if the song uncovers any falsehoods we've embraced about ourselves. I'll be listening closely alongside you. Let's press play and delve in… SONG 1 Peter 5:8-11 NIV says 8 Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 9 Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings. 10 And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. 11 To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen. The enemy may parade around like a ferocious lion, but in truth, he's a toothless predator whose sole strength lies in deception. When we anchor ourselves in the truth of God's Word, standing resolute, fear has no place, for Jesus has already triumphed over the enemy's deceit through the cross and the redemptive power of His blood. As 2 Corinthians 11:14 NIV tells us, Satan cloaks himself as an angel of light.  So, where should we seek unwavering truth—from fallible human wisdom claiming enlightenment or from the infallible Word of God? The answer is clear: Jesus, the embodiment of God's living Word! Thank you for joining me today on The Dennis Jernigan Podcast. For more about me, my journey, or my music, explore dennisjernigan.com.

In a nation scarred by years of civil war, the rapid collapse of Bashar al-Assad's regime in December 2024 marked a pivotal turning point. The Islamist terrorist group, HTS - once linked to Al-Qaeda - led a swift eleven-day offensive that toppled the government seizing key cities, including Damascus.However, this power shift unleashed a wave of sectarian violence with reports indicating that over 1,000 people have been killed in recent clashes, predominantly from the Alawite minority. Christian communities, too, face heightened threats under the new liberated Syria, with incidents of violence and kidnapping causing widespread fear.As HTS consolidates its control, the nation teeters on the brink with international observers expressing deep concern over the escalating humanitarian crisis and the uncertain future of Syria. Independent journalist Collin Mayfield was in Lebanon with Hezbollah when he learned of the Assad regime's collapse. Collin grabbed his gear and crossed into Syria just as HTS seized control.Mr. Mayfield witnessed and recorded Syria during these initial chaotic days. He visited the Damascus Public Hospital and saw corpses with evidence of severe torture, presumably recovered from Sednaya Prison. He encountered survivors from Sednaya Prison at the Ibn Sina Psychiatric Hospital who were severely traumatized. And of course, he visited Sednaya Prison, notoriously known as the “human slaughterhouse,” where he encountered evidence of extensive torture, extreme abuse, and female birth control pills. Collin even documented the Far' Falastin Prison, notorious for sexual violence against women.Collin, thank you for taking the time to share your far-ranging Syrian experience, from Captagon drug factories to encounters with ISIS and HTS Militia at Assad's Presidential Palace.

If you're willing, go ahead and sign up! Welcome to The Dennis Jernigan Podcast, where we aim to challenge your perspective on life. Life is a precious gift, but let's be real— it often comes with its share of pain. Whether it's physical, emotional, mental, or relational, we all encounter moments of sorrow and suffering. Life can feel anything but fair, right? That's why this podcast is here to guide you towards healing, hope, intimacy, and refuge from life's storms, ultimately fostering a deeper connection with Jesus. Through all my years, one thing is certain: God doesn't waste a thing. Not our struggles, not our wounds, not even our failures. Hey there, I'm Dennis Jernigan, your host, and I'm thrilled (and maybe a tad nervous) to share today's song and its backstory with you. As I mentioned last week, my apprehension stems from the fact that I typically share stories behind worship and ministry songs, but today's song was inspired by a fantasy novel series I penned for my kids and grandkids back in 2015. You might wonder, "Why is a worship leader writing about a fantasy world?" I won't recap all the details here, but if you tune in from the episode "Riding the Wind" to "Ollieman's Song," you'll understand why these songs are significant. The truth is, the Lord used fantasy and myth to anchor my unwavering faith in Jesus Christ. On this week's episode, I'm excited to share the song "Lucian's Pride," which I penned for my book "Captured," the first installment in The Chronicles of Bren Trilogy. This book is my life story told through allegory, serving as a legacy for my children and grandchildren. As I crafted these books, I couldn't help but imagine what they would sound like if they were turned into Disney movies. While I managed to create songs for the first two books, I never quite got around to composing for the third. That final book delves into my vision for my nine children, whose real-life tales are still unfolding. They'll have to write their own songs, quite literally. Now, here's the exciting part—I have fantastic news to share! You can not only listen to but also download the entire album for book one, "Captured - Songs For the Journey," completely free of charge. Simply head over to www.thechroniclesofbren.com to access it. I highly recommend reading "Captured" first and then immersing yourself in the songs inspired by each main character. This album aims to empower young men to transcend their flaws, failures, and the enemy's lies, embracing their true identity as defined by God. Let's delve into "Lucian's Pride," a song that came to me around 2015 or 2016. Lucian, the story's antagonist, embodies the evil that exists in our world. I see Lucian as a representation of Lucifer, both names—Lucian meaning 'Light' and Lucifer meaning 'Shining One'—initially appearing as beacons of light but concealing darkness and malevolence within. Just like in the story of Captured, I, too, faced adversity in my youth, including sexual abuse and ridicule for my creative nature. Despite these challenges, I chose to view them from a higher perspective—the Lord's perspective—allowing me to emerge as an overcomer who sees setbacks as stepping stones to greater things. I overcame the hurts of my childhood and I actually allegorically incorporated them into the book series The Chronicles of Bren: Captured and The Chronicles of Bren: Sacrifice. Lucian symbolizes the enduring concept that redemption is always within reach, irrespective of our past mistakes. As we're taught in God's word, Lucifer, the devil, is a master deceiver who seeks the downfall of every human. He prowls around like a roaring lion, aiming to devour with his deceit. But let me assure you, based on personal experience, our past failures don't define us. True failure only occurs when someone stumbles and chooses not to rise and continue on the path toward Jesus. This song offers a glimpse into Satan's tactics, shedding light on how he navigates the human mind. His goal is to inflate our pride to the point where we believe ourselves to be gods. Let's reject the lies and embrace the truth of who God says we are. "Lucian's Pride" stirs within me a righteous anger towards the enemy of God, having witnessed many individuals liberated from his falsehoods, reborn through Jesus.  It echoes the deceptive whispers of the Liar—Lucifer—that haunted me in my youth and early adulthood, evoking that same anger. The thought of countless children falling victim to his lies fuels my determination to share these stories far and wide, especially with the youth. We need to remember that. My wish is that this song will help them see through the deception as they engage with the book and its music. Let's tune in and see if the song uncovers any falsehoods we've embraced about ourselves. I'll be listening closely alongside you. Let's press play and delve in… SONG 1 Peter 5:8-11 NIV says 8 Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 9 Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings. 10 And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. 11 To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen. The enemy may parade around like a ferocious lion, but in truth, he's a toothless predator whose sole strength lies in deception. When we anchor ourselves in the truth of God's Word, standing resolute, fear has no place, for Jesus has already triumphed over the enemy's deceit through the cross and the redemptive power of His blood. As 2 Corinthians 11:14 NIV tells us, Satan cloaks himself as an angel of light.  So, where should we seek unwavering truth—from fallible human wisdom claiming enlightenment or from the infallible Word of God? The answer is clear: Jesus, the embodiment of God's living Word! Thank you for joining me today on The Dennis Jernigan Podcast. For more about me, my journey, or my music, explore dennisjernigan.com.

You have all you need But when you're cut you still bleed Who do you think you are?

When you think of St. Patrick, what comes to mind—green beer, shamrocks, and leprechauns? The real story of Patrick of Ireland is far more powerful and inspiring. In this special bonus episode, Pastor Jeff steps away from our denominational series to share the true history of St. Patrick, the man who brought Christianity to Ireland and left a lasting legacy of faith.Here's What We Discussed:01:35 – The Origins of St. Patrick's Day Each year, millions gather to celebrate St. Patrick's Day, often unaware of the man behind the holiday. From Savannah's large-scale parade to Chicago's tradition of dyeing the river green, the day is widely recognized, yet few know the historical and spiritual significance.03:18 – St. Patrick Wasn't IrishBorn around 373 AD, likely in Britain or possibly near Glasgow, Scotland, Patrick was not Irish. Captured by pirates at age 16, he was sold into slavery to an Irish chieftain, where he spent years tending sheep and witnessing the brutal pagan culture of the time.05:55 – A Spiritual Awakening in CaptivityDuring six years of enslavement, Patrick experienced a profound spiritual transformation. Through prayer and suffering, his faith deepened, leading him to eventually commit his life to Christ. His own writings record how adversity brought him to his knees before God.08:52 – Escape and the Call to ReturnAfter escaping captivity, Patrick found refuge in France, where he entered a monastery and took the Latin name "Patricus." Years later, he experienced a divine call to return to Ireland—not as a captive, but as a missionary to the very people who had enslaved him.10:36 – A Missionary to IrelandPatrick spent nearly 29 years preaching the gospel across Ireland. Fluent in the Irish language, he baptized over 120,000 people and established more than 300 churches, leading a spiritual transformation that turned a pagan nation toward Christianity.11:55 – Legends: Snakes and ShamrocksAmong the legends surrounding St. Patrick is the claim that he drove all the snakes out of Ireland—though this is likely symbolic, representing his battle against paganism. Another enduring story tells of Patrick using a three-leaf clover to explain the Christian doctrine of the Trinity to a skeptical king.13:12 – St. Patrick's Breastplate PrayerBefore facing his enemies, Patrick prayed for divine protection. His prayer, known as “St. Patrick's Breastplate,” remains a powerful expression of faith, invoking Christ's presence in every aspect of life—from the moment of rising to every encounter with others.We love your feedback!

Through all my years, one truth stands firm: God doesn't waste a thing - not our sorrows, not our wounds, not even our failures. Hello, I'm your host, Dennis Jernigan, thrilled yet slightly nervous to unveil today's song and, what I think is, its fascinating backstory. As I mentioned last week, my apprehension stems from the fact that while you're accustomed to hearing me share worship, ministry, and comforting songs inspired by Father God, today's song has a different origin. It draws inspiration from a trilogy of fantasy novels I penned for my children and grandchildren back in 2015. You might be wondering, "Why would a worship leader delve into the realm of fantasy?" To get the full scoop, tune in to the podcast episode titled "Song of Arolis." Intriguingly, the Lord used fantasy and myth to deepen my unwavering faith in Jesus Christ.  The featured song in this week's episode is "Ollieman's Song," originally crafted for the book "Captured" from The Chronicles of Bren Trilogy. "Captured" serves as my life story, narrated allegorically as a legacy for my descendants. While penning the books, I couldn't help but imagine how they would translate into a Disney movie. I managed to compose songs for the first two books but never quite got around to creating tunes for the final installment. That third book delves into my aspirations for my nine children, whose real-life tales are still unfolding - they will ultimately script their own melodies.  Before we delve further, I have fantastic news to share. You can access and even download the entire album dedicated to book one, "Captured - Songs For the Journey," completely free of charge at www.thechroniclesofbren.com. I urge you to immerse yourself in the "Captured" book before delving into the songs inspired by its key characters. This album aims to empower young men to rise above their setbacks, failures, and the deceitful whispers of the enemy, enabling them to embrace their true identity in God.  Today's spotlight is on "Ollieman's Song," a creation that found its way to me back in 2015 or 2016.In The Chronicles of Bren series, a prominent figure is a wise old owl named Ollieman. Wondering why? Well, during my childhood, our family owned an old  barn, crafted by my grandfather in the 1930s and 1940s, boasting a magnificent hay loft. Every year, like clockwork, this barn played host to majestic barn owls. Each spring, a new generation of owlets would hatch, fiercely guarded by their mother who would not tolerate any intrusion, warning us with menacing hisses if we dared to peek into their nest! Those owls became a recurring dream of mine, a reminder of the wonder of having our very own owl neighbors!  In the tale of "Captured," the owl symbolizes unwavering friendship and embodies true wisdom. Opting for an owl was a deliberate choice, considering the bird's reputation for wisdom in the western world, attributed to its distinct features like large, front-facing eyes, noiseless flight, and nocturnal activities. Owls seem to communicate only when essential, mirroring the sentiment of Proverbs 7:28 NKJV, which suggests that even a fool can appear wise by choosing silence and discernment. I aim to leave a legacy of wisdom for my family, recognizing the allure of petty self-centeredness. Genuine wisdom stems from adopting a positive outlook, akin to an owl soaring above, navigating darkness with clarity. It's crucial for us to commit to seeking true wisdom throughout our lives, fostering personal growth. If you notice a rhyme scheme in Ollie's dialogue, that's just my inner songwriter shining through.  In "Captured," I delve into my early longing for meaningful companionship, rooted in the desire to be truly understood. This quest led me to discover that connection in Jesus. "Ollieman's Song" exudes a cheerful vibe that might linger in your mind throughout the day - consider yourself warned if it becomes an earworm. Embrace it, enjoy it, and let the melody uplift your spirits. SONG God's Word explains love and friendship to  us in John 15:13 NKJV 13 which says "Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends.”  Ollieman the owl serves as a poignant representation of Jesus, encouraging us to gain a divine perspective on life's challenges. By aligning ourselves with God's vantage point, we unlock the pathway to genuine wisdom. May this insight guide you not only today but in the days that follow.   Before I say goodbye, let me share a few ways to keep up with me.

I recommend delving into the book before immersing yourself in the character-inspired songs.   Thank you once again for being part of today's podcast.

Kathleen discusses surveys she was involved with which indicated that people of faith would be more open to ET contact than atheists or agnostics -  a conclusion I personally struggle to understand.Kathleen Marden's lifelong pursuit of UFO and extraterrestrial contact research stems from her personal connection to the 1961 Betty and Barney Hill abduction.

But here's the thing - amidst the struggles, there is room for healing, hope, intimacy, and solace. This podcast aims to guide you towards a deeper connection with Jesus by helping you navigate through life's twists and turns with grace and faith. I'm Dennis Jernigan, your host, and today, I'm thrilled yet slightly nervous to dive into the story behind a unique song. While I usually share songs of worship and ministry, today's song was born from a trilogy of fantasy novels I penned for my loved ones in 2015. You might wonder, "Why would a worship leader venture into the realm of fantasy storytelling?” I won't rehash what was discussed in the previous episode, so if you want the backstory, check out the two previous podcasts titled “Riding the Wind” and “Warrior." They shed light on why these songs hold significance for me. It's fascinating how the Lord used fantasy and myth to deepen my unwavering faith in Jesus Christ. Now, let's dive into the heart of this episode—the "Song of Arolis," a track I composed for the book "Captured," the first installment of The Chronicles of Bren Trilogy.  This book serves as an allegorical recounting of my life, intended as a legacy for my descendants. While crafting the novels, I couldn't help but imagine how these stories would translate into a Disney movie soundtrack. I managed to complete the songs for the first two books, but the third remains unwritten, reflecting my vision for my nine children, whose real-life tales are still unfolding. They will have to pen their own melodies.  Here's a piece of exciting news: you can now enjoy the entire album inspired by book one, "Captured - Songs For the Journey," available on www.thechroniclesofbren.com. I urge you to delve into the book "Captured" first, then savor the songs intricately linked to each main character. Interestingly, the song list is in reverse order, prompting you to listen from bottom to top and sync each track with its corresponding chapter. Simply hit play and let the music speak to your soul. This album is a beacon of encouragement, inspiring young men to rise above their flaws, failures, and the enemy's deceit, embracing their true identity as defined by God. Introducing today's featured song, the captivating "Song of Arolis," a melody that found its way to me around 2015 or 2016. Let's delve into the world of Arolis—a name intertwined with my lifelong equine companions. From my early days, horses have been a significant part of my life. Picture this: Spot, my first pony, tragically met his end in a car accident, leaving me heartbroken. Then there was Big Red, my father's sturdy, red-coated horse whose name was as straightforward as his appearance. And who could forget Silver, the mischievous pony intent on testing my riding skills by attempting to dislodge me near fences and trees? But it was Robin, our spirited Welsh pony, that sparked endless adventures. Tethered to a red wagon, Robin would gleefully pull my siblings and me at breakneck speed across our farm, pushing the wagon to its limits, requiring regular repairs from my dad's welding skills.  Amidst these tales of equine antics, one horse stood out—Sugar. This noble gelding, my faithful companion from boyhood to my senior year in high school, was more than just a horse; he was a trusted friend. Together, Sugar and I roamed the countryside, forging unforgettable memories. We swam, fished, raced, and herded cattle, all while building an unbreakable bond of trust and camaraderie. Every Saturday, I'd ride Sugar into town, collecting and selling pop bottles along the way to earn enough for a well-deserved burger. With Sugar, I could perform daring feats, including mounting him mid-run from behind, a display of mutual trust and companionship. As I crafted the character of Arolis, the beloved horse of Prince Leonolis, all these cherished moments flooded back, inspiring a tale where a boy on horseback can embody a warrior, an explorer, a hero, and soar with the wind—all at once. Let's unravel the multifaceted essence of Arolis, a name that carries profound meanings of commitment, promise, truth-seeking, and wisdom. In a deeply personal context, Arolis, among other characters in the narrative, embodies the Holy Spirit and the embodiment of authentic friendship.  Reflecting on my own journey, I yearned for a steadfast companion, someone with whom I could share my deepest thoughts and who would stand by me through life's trials. This longing persisted through my school years and into college until a transformative moment when I encountered Jesus, who became that unwavering friend I had always sought. Through Him, I discovered the presence of the Holy Spirit as a comforting guide, offering solace in times of turmoil and unwavering honesty, even in the depths of solitude that marked my early years.  Within the pages of "Captured," the character Leonolis experiences the remarkable ability to engage in conversations of thought with Arolis, a revelation that initially surprises him but eventually becomes a wellspring of vitality and resilience as the plot unfolds. This song encapsulates the yearning of a boy to be truly understood, a desire to both seek and be seen in the rawness of his being. Let's listen. SONG [Jhn 15:26-27 NKJV] 26 "But when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me. 27 "And you also will bear witness, because you have been with Me from the beginning. Arolis symbolizes a steadfast companion, a loyal helper, and an unwavering friend to Leonolis, mirroring the role that the Holy Spirit has played in my own life's journey.  I wholeheartedly recommend delving into the pages of "Captured: The Chronicles of Bren Trilogy, Book 1" and immersing yourself in each song as it intertwines with the characters within the storyline. I firmly believe that through imaginative storytelling, God can utilize these narratives to inspire us to anchor ourselves in the unshakeable truths of Jesus Christ and His word.  The process of crafting these books proved to be a cathartic and liberating experience for my heart and mind, offering me fresh perspectives on the twists, turns, heartaches, and failures that have shaped my life. My aspiration is that these tales will similarly resonate with you, providing moments of reflection and insight.  For a deeper exploration of the enchanting realm of Bren, to discover songs inspired by its tales, to uncover the origins of specific characters, and to view original character sketches handcrafted by yours truly, venture over to www.thechroniclesofbren.com.

Will You carry me to the end of day? The horizon far seems To call out our name Let us ride for the King To break of day Chorus Arolis, I trust You with my heart and soul I trust You, my Friend Arolis, I trust You with my very life Let us ride and conquer the wind Bridge In the name of the King And in the name of the realm Let us fly! Let us fly! Let us fly! Over mountain and stream Through the dark forested veil Let us ride! Let us ride! Let us ride!

Edition No107 | 07-03-2025 - The US is captured by lies, some of which have their origins in Moscow. The main institutions of power are also captured by disingenuous grifters and traitors, as well as those that have subordinated their own morality and political values to gain proximity to power. These people want to realign the US with its historic enemy, Russia, and loosen bonds with allies – such as Ukraine, France, Britain and Canada. Many of the Kremlin seeded lies do not have any political aims of objectives in themselves but are intended to flood the zone with conflict and division, so that the real strategic manoeuvres are lost to sight or ignored. Such as the sinister and outrageous piece of political theatre in the Oval Office, which was designed to distract from what Trump really intended to do all along – but military aid to Ukraine, to force it to capitulate to Russia, as the fastest route to what he sees as peace. This is the real game, not the puppet show that we and the media are endlessly drawn to -car crash TV – clickbait for social media. Now the real game is afoot.
