Before March 12, 2004, Marcus Wesson had made known his plans to relocate his daughters and their children to Washington, closer to extended family. On March 12, 2004, several members of Wesson's family, including two nieces who rebelled against him, converged on the family home, demanding Marcus release the children. Fresno police were called out to what was described as a custody dispute, and a standoff ensued. Wesson told the police to wait at the door, disappeared into the home, and when he returned to the door, his clothes were bloodied. -- The Ray Appleton Show Weekdays, 11AM-2PM News/Talk 580 & 105.9 KMJ kmjnow.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Bitwise has been failing on paying its employees for a year and a half, according to the City of Fresno Mayor Jerry Dyer. According to the Mayor, he was not able to determine how much money the company owed to the City since they never reported how much they made, which is a determining factor of the amount of taxes they might owe. photos from Hunter Biden's laptop has been made available to the public through a new website that launched Thursday.

A family in Raleigh, NC won a legal battle with their homeowners' association, paving the way for many more households in North Carolina to install solar panels. In 2018, the Farwig family installed a set of $30,000 solar panels on their roof. They had checked their HOA's rules first and found nothing specified about solar panels. However, five months later, the HOA instructed them to apply for the change after the fact — then denied the application. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In the Annual State of the City Address, Fresno Mayor Jerry Dyer talked about a number of issues affecting the City of Fresno in both good and bad ways. He discussed updated crime statistics and said overall, crime in Fresno is down. “Year to date, property crime is down by 15 percent business burglary fell by 47 percent residential burglary fell by 29 percent, and auto thefts are down by 32 percent,” he said. Dyer also addressed the issue of homelessness and said they continue to work every day to change the situation. The city of Fresno will soon make loans of up to $100,000 for would-be homebuyers, thanks to a $4.1 million infusion of money from the state of California.

Fresno Mayor Jerry Dyer presented his proposed 2024 fiscal year budget to the Fresno City Council on Thursday, coming in as the largest budget in city history by more than $130 million. Perhaps the biggest takeaway, however, was Dyer's suspenseful introduction to a yet-to-be-determined trash hauling rate increase for Fresno residents. California's reparations task force recently approved landmark recommendations that could lead to billions of dollars for the state's Black residents. But the task force's proposals, which include the potential for more than $1 million payments to some Black Californians, face significant hurdles in deep-blue California. Support of the racial justice movement has faded since then, and the state is now facing a $32 billion budget shortfall that would make launching multibillion dollar programs for Black residents difficult.

It's Wednesday, August 31st, A.D. 2022. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Chinese Communists shut down church Chinese officials liquidated an historic house church in Shaanxi Province earlier this month. The Church of Abundance had been operating for about 30 years. Officials shut it down for being a “illegal social organization.” Communists placed the church's pastor, Lian Changnian, and his son, Pastor Lian Xuliang, under residential surveillance. The latest closure is part of Chinese President Xi Jinping's plan to force Protestant churches to join the government-controlled Three-Self Church or face liquidation. Paul wrote in 2 Corinthians 4:8-10, “We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed—always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body.” India's hostility to girls slightly less pronounced Pew Research reports that India's sex ratio at birth has been moving toward balance. The sex ratio imbalance arose in the 1970s as Indian families used sex-selective abortions tragically to kill girls and ensure the birth of boys. At least nine million female births went “missing” between 2000 and 2019. For decades, the sex ratio at birth was about 110 boys per 100 girls. The latest 2019-2021 National Family Health Survey found that the ratio has narrowed to 108 boys per 100 girls. Notably, Christians in India maintained a healthy sex ratio at birth compared to other religious groups in the Hindu-majority country. Court to California: Stop forcing churches to pay for abortions Last Thursday, a U.S. federal judge ruled California cannot force churches to cover abortions in their insurance plans. Alliance Defending Freedom represented Foothill Church, Calvary Chapel Chino Hills, and Shepherd of the Hills Church in their suit against California. The state's 2014 Department of Managed Health Care policy removed any limitations on abortion coverage in health care plans. ADF Senior Counsel Jeremiah Galus said, “The government can't force a church or any other religious employer to violate their faith and conscience by participating in funding abortion. For years, California has unconstitutionally targeted faith-based organizations. So, we're pleased the court has found this mandate unconstitutional and will allow the churches we represent to operate freely according to their religious beliefs.” CA mayor vetoed Planned Parenthood million-dollar grant A California mayor is standing up against abortion funding. On August 18, Fresno City Council voted 5-1 to give a one million dollar grant to a local Planned Parenthood. Last Thursday, to his credit, Fresno Mayor Jerry Dyer vetoed the grant. Dyer stated, “I remain hopeful that the Council will reconsider accepting funds on behalf of Planned Parenthood Mar Monte, and instead work to see that a health-related agency is identified as the local administrator of state funds.” The council will consider overriding the mayor's veto.

FL voters elected conservative majorities in 5 school boards On Tuesday, candidates opposed to Critical Race Theory won a majority of seats in five Florida counties. The candidates received backing from Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis and the 1776 Project PAC. The political action committee is devoted to replacing woke school board members across the nation. The recent election flipped Florida's Miami-Dade County to conservative. It's the most populous county in Florida and has the largest school district in the state. Miami-Dade County is now the largest county in America with a conservative school board majority. Proverbs 1:7 speaks to education, “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction.” Only 51% of Evangelical pastors have a biblical worldview And finally, a study this year from Dr. George Barna and the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University found just 37% of Christian pastors and only 51% of Evangelical pastors have a biblical worldview. The latest report from the university found pastors from non-denominational and independent Protestant churches were the most likely to hold to basic biblical views. Surprisingly, the study found few evangelical pastors hold a majority of biblical beliefs. Even fewer pastors from mainline, Pentecostal, and Catholic churches hold biblical beliefs. And pastors of Holiness churches and traditionally black denominations were the least likely to hold biblical beliefs. Hebrews 10:23 says, “Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.” Close And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Wednesday, August 31st, in the year of our Lord 2022.
